Comment(by jorix):

 Great!

 Since this topic touches I have a suggestion:

 Using a pixel to position the controls is very poor. Could add to what
 corner is concerned: "tl" (top left), "tr" (top right), "bl" (bottom
 left), and "br"  (bottom right) and as default set "tl"

 Currently using the positioning controls is not useful if the CSS use a
 corner control other than "tl". Since the control simultaneously resized
 using "left" & "right" or "top" & "bottom" because their position is
 absolute.

 So by default:
 {{{
 div.style.left = position.x + "px";
 div.style.top = position.y + "px";
 div.style.bottom = "auto;
 div.style.right = "auto;
 }}}

 Another suggestion is to rename getDiv by createDiv
