Good work, Laszlo.

You are definitely on the right track.

With regard to what you are proposing, I think these points you
propose are interesting indeed and I'd like to see them developed.
Furthermore, it will be interesting if you can explain what's your
vision on how the user will be triggering and interacting with these
tools.

Cheers!
Aleix
