What's the feature?

See #6908 (comment). We have no way of defining a relative snap point when snapping handles with the shift modifier.

The current logic relies on finding a "next adjacent point", which just means the next handle that isn't a 'middle' handle and that isn't itself. This works for our shapes, but does not allow for custom behaviour in user defined shapes.

This came about working on the bezier curve example shape. With this shape the first control handle ends up snapping relative to the next control handle, which results in janky snapping. Amusingly, it works for the second control point because the next point that isn't middle and itself is the end point of the curve — which is the desired point for intuitive snapping.

This will require a new API design that will allow users to define their own relative snap points for shift modifier snapping.
