The Slice tool (Shift+K) drags out a user slice (Shift square, Alt from the
centre, snapping to ruler guides) as one undo step through
object.slice.create. The Slice Selection tool selects slices (Shift
toggles, object.slice.select), moves them (object.slice.move; object
slices move their objects), resizes a user slice by its handles
(object.slice.setRect), opens Slice Options on a double click and deletes
with Delete (object.slice.delete). Hidden or locked slices can't be
picked. Both tools have cursors drawn in code.

Document.slices holds user slices, Node.slice makes an object an object
slice that follows its bounds, and Document.slices_clip_to_artboard picks
the region auto slices fill (the artboards, or the art and the slices).
Object → Slice: Make, Release, Create from Guides, Create from Selection,
Duplicate, Combine, Divide… (dialog), Delete All, Slice Options… (dialog)
and Clip to Artboard; View → Hide/Lock Slices; Select → Object → Slices;
slice.list reads the numbered layout. The canvas draws the slices in the
Slices preferences' line colour with their numbers.
