But it is not like it would be that hard to do with a image editing
software.
just enlarge the left border by the width, and paste the image in the
space.
this results in the placement on the exact pixel.

Of course it is not the ideal solution - but if anything else fails it is
not like
there is no other way.
There is also picture editing software which can very well cope with
multiple layers
in one picture.
