When I wrote the above comment about offsets and homing I was actually thinking that eventually they'll want to do "over-molding" of a soft plastic over a harder base, perhaps as a sealing component, or just to add "grip" like those fancy toothbrush handles you see nowadays. Basically, anything that requires them to orient the start of a printing job with an existing part rather than just somewhere on the machine table within the machine limits as they do now. Once they discover edge finders...
