Bounding Box Center should use the bounding box and not the pivot

When the gizmo is set to bounding box center, it is not positioned in the center of the boundingbox. instead it is positioned in the center of the selected pivots of the selected objects.

I would prefer, if the gizmo would be positioned at the center of the bounding box, as the name indicates.

100% agree. It's named "Bounding box center", the documentation takes a paragraph to explain what the bounding box is, then immediately states that in object mode this pivot isn't actually using the bounding box :D

Yeah. I need this feature. It's a common situation when you don't want to move the pivot point but need to rotate around the center of the object. Currently, I move the cursor there, but it takes like 10 times more time than I do it in 3ds max where this feature works.
