Micheus,
about the problem of how to affect "both sides", i think the best way to solve this is to select the two appropriate faces (or both set of edges or verts).
about the "shortest" distance radio button, you can access it just before execute any Magnet operation (standard magnet, not tweak) by clicking Alt + Right mouse button (check Info Line). I show this at the end of the following video.
About the experiment, i think it is not possible either with an array of elements, either with a single object enterely welded, because Wings just consider a single entity in scene and a general and uniqued Axis coordinate: it cant see the individual elements Local coordinates.
Anyway the video shows those steps to rotate and scale around an axis using Magnet to soft that effect along the mesh.

In the video i used Scale | Uniform: sorry. To your purposes, you have to use Scale | Radial.
