Because it modifies spindle state, and interacts with spindle motion commands, 
all of which are in motion. The contortions to do the same semantics in, say, 
iocontrol would have been substantial, for no benefit I could see.

Another reason is: doing it this way, and not through a remapped M19 code 
(which I've also done as a demo) permits orient and other operations like a 
move to progress in parallel. Not possible to do with NGC HAL I/O, and unlikely 
with clp alone.

as far as iocontrol is concerned, I do not want to prolong its life more than 
necessary - there is no good reason left nowadays to have that prolonged by 
adding new functions to it.
