2 PCBs in one file?
I use Kikit for exactly this. The pro's on here are better at thinking ahead than me - I end up iterating by boards and components so having the schematics as hierarchical sheets and the PCBs in one file makes sure I don't cross-wire or mess up the connectors between mother and daughter boards etc.

Multiple PCBs from a single schematic
Have a look at Kikit https://github.com/yaqwsx/KiKit/blob/master/docs/multiboard.md. I put things in a single schematic, and have multiple boards in the pcb design. Kikit then splits the out for you - and panelises them etc if you want too.

Another day, another release: KiKit v1.1 — automation tool for KiCAD (panelisation, output generator); a ton of new features, details in a comment.
And even when I populate boards by hand, I make my panels as I can generate stencils that fit my alignment jigs (see https://github.com/yaqwsx/KiKit/blob/master/doc/stencil.md).

Better way to align edges to grid?
I would advice to not to draw the panels manually, but instead generate them automatically via KiKit (https://github.com/yaqwsx/KiKit)
