2.78 moving Selection to 3D Cursor

[Basho]

it seems in 2.78, the shortcut for moving a selection to the 3D cursor have changed. no big deal, but there is another problem i cant seem to figure out.

in earlier versions, when moving a selection to the 3D cursor, the selection would center with its median point at the location of the 3D cursor.
but now, every vertex is moved to the exact location of the 3D cursor, i.e. the same spot instead of maintaining their relative orientations. "merging" at the 3D cursor, so to speak.

any ideas on how to stop this "merge" from happening?

oh, i see now. what i was trying to accomplish is actually one of the options present in the "Snap Cursor" space menu, and it is called "Selection to Cursor (Offset)".

well, thats problem solved then.
