Honestly - this tool is useless without an option for G2 Curvature continuity

I sincerely hope we can fix this for V8 - it needs to work beautifully !

This tool is fundamental - it's right at the top of the drawing tree. You can't make good surfaces and good solids from dodgy "smooth" curves

[As I understand, for Curvature Continuity (G2), 2 cv's must be aligned with the tangency of the parent curve ... not just one !!

One cv alignment gives us Tangent Continuity (G1) only - which in most cases is NOT a 'Smooth Curve Fill' !!!]
