If you want to make it completely 3D compatible then defining angle in
planar and angle perpendicular direction would have to be defined.
This all could be taken relative to the working plane selected, if I am not
mistaken, right?
I propose making @P the perpendicular angle symbol.

something like: @ radius @P radius ^ distance
so travel of @90 @P90 ^1.41421356
would go 1 unit of distance in axes X an Z, right? (actually, any two main
axes, depending on the plane selected)
