For 2.2.2, we should improve hatching.

Thinking about a really useful method:

1, click an area to hatch, with new edges created auto:
For example, there are 4 infinite lines surrounding (0, 0), forming a quadrilateral around (0, 0). The algorithm should be able to hatch the quadrilateral;
2, user can edit a hatch by adding or removing loops to it, but loops shouldn't interact with each other.

The development is definitely heavy here, but should be intuitive to the end users.
