Well there does need to be a fallback to the old code though, I know lots of
people who like this way of modeling, in fact I prefer it over wings.
However it would be nice to have for different tools for different types of
modeling, like organic or technical.

Another something I think blender needs in order to be better a better
modeler is infinite vertices per face. This makes it much easier to create
Booleans (I think I have little knowledge in coding, or the way Booleans
work).

It's a pet feature of mine. :)

And yes, tighter integration with other renderers is an excellent idea. But
I think we also need to focus on removing certain problems people are
getting with the current renderer. Maybe more control over the cartoon
edging, so we can edit its actual size, not just the color.

I've got a boatload of things I want (*cough*need*cough*) changed or added.
I really hate going and asking the coders to do something, because I fell
like I should be doing it myself. But I've tried coding before, and it's to
frustrating for me, that's why I enjoy art so much, I have more fun with
that.

And thanks Ton for all you've done for us!!

Learning from Nendo or Wings... we really should upgrade this modeling
system in Blender. Should be done in close cooperation with the coders
however... but they *do* need feedback!
