Wish: combine surface tools (loft, sweep2, networksrf, blendsrf)

Hi guys,
here is my (first) vision of the tool, based on an evolved NetworkSrf:
A UnifiedSurfaceTool that combines Loft, Sweep1 and 2, Networksrf, Blend and Surface from 2,3 or 4 curves.

  • The curves can be turned on and off to see changes on the fly.
  • Position, tangency or Curvature can be chosen and adjusted with sliders when possible.
    (grayed out if position is chosen, or if it is a curve and not an edge)
  • They can be internally dragged around to change order for a loft, or deleted by selecting in list and hitting delete.
  • New ones can be added by clicking the [+] icon.
  • Slashes can be added in both directions, and also turned off and/or deleted again.

Edit: I presume a “do not simplify” option should have been added together with the tolerance settings.

Preview is done in viewport shade mode and isocurves can be turned off.
