I'm not motivated enough to try to put this feature in myself, but would
certainly make use of it. I have enough WCS's to survive as is, but feel a
bit cramped...
I'm not really sure how this works for the linuxcnc project, but along the
lines of bug bounties, I'd throw in 40$ CAD (a virtual case of beer if you
will) to whomever makes this happen, especially if it could be patched
into 2.7.8 or some other easy upgrade path (I have a stable machine and
the idea of going to master scares me...). If this is some sort of faux
paus then please ignore/pretend I'm not so ignorant.

I work with a lot of Fanuc machines and I was curious if there was any
interest in the Linuxcnc community for having more work coordinate
systems available similar to how Fanuc controls have their G54.1 option.
It works by adding a P code to a G54 command. In the Fanuc system there
are the usual G54-G59 then continues on with G54P1, G54P2... up to some
large number (the limit depends on how much you paid for.)
I know Linuxcnc can sort of work around this by using axis offsets in
the tool table like work coordinate system offsets, but it seems a
little hacky.
