Well, I'm not sure - what exactly would you expect for a "regular" bevel/extrude function to do?

If you would expect it to do this, then I guess this qualifies! :)

There will eventually be a different kind of extrude function called a "tapered extrude" which would make more like a conical type inward sloped extrusion from a flat outline. That one when starting from a circle curve would produce a cone shape. Is that the kind of thing that you're referring to?


Wait, I guess you're probably talking about something like this:



This new function will generate this:



But you're probably thinking of a polygon modeler type bevel which would be like this:




Maybe in the future that could become an option, like a "Tapered" checkbox to this same command - the pieces are kind of in place there you just need to have some Lofts put in between the correct edges. I don't think it will be very easy to incorporate that right now though.
