This is awesome news Michael - I can't wait to try this out.
Just last night at the store I took a look at some of the new P&G fabric softener bottles:

There seemed to be four or five brand names with the same bottle. I was wondering if this shape was formed by Sub-D or maybe by a hand-carved clay sculpture by industry artisans.
I'm not sure that a twist deformation of the nature that you are presenting was what formed this bottle, but I find it interesting that it gave me pause to consider last night.
Would you consider any sub-control elements such as a positional start and end to the twist deformations (perhaps defined by the inference on where the start and end twist-axis definition is made)?
And also, perhaps a logarithmic or varied control over the angular degree through the body of the twist - where an object set could start slowly on the twist, then accelerate to a more acute twist?
But none the less, this is great news! And it looks so smooth too. This will surely streamline a lot of procedural work in things like turbine blades and ornamental decoration.
