Hi DDP, I think MoI will get those tools eventually, but the ones you are asking about are for advanced NURBS surface modeling. That is a pretty finicky type of modeling that has a much higher learning curve than solids modeling using primarily 2D profile curves.
Currently that type of modeling is not really a main focus area for MoI but I do expect to add to that toolset over time.
But probably a sub-d toolset will get a higher priority than advanced NURBS modeling though, again because the learning curve is so high for "patch by patch" type NURBS surface modeling. It's more difficult to learn and to be productive with than sub-d. Sub-d was largely created and took off because that type of NURBS modeling is so difficult.
