This script helps you to match the modifier gizmo (UVW, Slice) of selected object to the gizmo of picked object. Internally this is done by copying the local transforms of the source (picked) object to the target object, so Pivot point of the target object will be relocated.

Usage:

Select the object, click the script button on the toolbar and pick the source object. In the modifier stack of the selected object new modifier named Xform (Match Transform) will appear. Now you can copy/paste any modifier from the source object to this object and place them after Xform modifier and their gizmos will match the gizmos of source objects. You can also paste modifiers as instance as well (that's the main advantage :) )

Here's a video with some general workflow:
