It would be part of the process, when using a remapped M6. The remap procedure 
would look like so (assuming manual toolchange):

G30 (move to TC position)
Mxxx (enable jog - this code terminates when a, say, 'continue' button is 
pressed)
g38.3 ... (touchoff tool at tool length switch)

so you cant touchoff *in* this mode, but it leads up to the steps to do it

Only insofar as I'll understand motion a bit better after this I guess

I've been discussing this with Andy a bit offline, but I dont see the light 
yet. There's a lot more involved in this than just doing what I proposed in 
this thread, like switching a motion context (snapshotting motion and tp 
queues), cover the reentry problem on context restore for cycles as well as 
plain moves, probably another offset managed in motion, and a truely 
instantiable interpreter to start with (what I proposed, buts that just the 
first 10% I guess)
