Bugs in Rhino 6 + suggestions for the BlendSrf command

Hi there, Currently I’m using Rhino 6 Evaluation and I managed to find several bug in the program that were not present in Rhino 5. I have 3d Connexion SpacePilot (the old discontinued model, not the more recent “SpacePilot Pro” one) that works flawlessly in Rhino 5, but in Rhino 6 I noticed that 3d Connexion’s automatic rotation center no longer can “see” through solids and surfaces that were given a custom “wireframe” viewport setting through the “SetObjectDisplayMode” command.
