Agree. Only in my priority list it's quite far down.

Some lines above the curve radius.

YES! Maybe this would be even my number one wish.

Again: this is really great news. If they are going to work on new curves, new
short track sections might follow as next.

(I think TLC should be somewhat more systematic in developing new parts: I'm
waiting for a corner brick for the rounded roof part. And I need the double
sloped roof brick in 75° for inner corners - there are dozens of such none
existing parts that would fill blank areas in a systematic parts reference
table).

This has been mentioned before, but don't forget that short straights are easy
to make, and quite functional.

If you're willing to cut up long straights, that is. I'd prefer to get them
from Lego(r).
