Cool, I'm glad that you're finding it useful! I think the other important factor is that it stays out of your way until you call for it with the drag gesture. I've seen many other systems that get triggered too easily and then sometimes end up getting in the way.

I'm not planning on adding construction plane handling in for V1, but I haven't given up on it forever. I think it will come in future versions.

Once you have set a custom construction plane, I figure it will probably affect all views and then at that point it would probably make sense for typed-in coordinates to be in that new coordinate system instead of world. I don't think that would be surprising anymore, because you would have to do something in particular to activate it.

But just having the coordinate system shift by having a particular view active is more of a problem.

I've fixed this for the next beta so that focus will only go to the xyz coordinate input if there is a point currently being picked.
