OK. I like where your head is going, but are you willing to maintain it in the long term? Also, how much of this functionality would be embedded into the critical code path (that everything uses), and how much of it would be addon applications which are nice to have but LCNC still works if they break? If it was split out as a helper, then that would probably be maintainable. The structure of the tool table and interface would likely be mission critical part of the code-base.
