A tag that enabled rotation and scale of a spline point to be stored and retrieved
imagine - no more rail splines in scenes (just manually set with new virtual axis on each spline point - drop virtual tag into rail spline box)
or retrieve angle to next point (automatically available in tag or drive for all sorts of things)
or work it the other way, place the point ahead based on rotation of previous point (tag as generator)
Although I'm not heavily into CA I'd imagine there would also be useful connections with IK and joint rotation
