hi,

Your plan seems to very ambitious, but some fundamental concepts are probably missing in LC currently:

1, page. I think we once talked about paperspace and possible support for multiple pages, but the current LC is a single drawing area (conceptually infinite 2D plane);

2, Project. Currently each drawing is independent. Arguably, "blocks" might be treated as sub-projects;

3, templates. There's an "New from template", but the feature is nothing more than loading a drawing for further changes, not specialized template features after the "new" action.

Another thought, whether LC version 3 is better for this type of features. Easier to do everything by scripts, and the cross-reference/projects can be provided as templates.
