I just thought of these. They are great to make rounded corners, but
the structural soundness of the model is less than with overlapping
1x2's. They should make a 1x2 with a rounded-off end, sort of like a
1x1 with half of a 'macaroni' attached to it.

Yes, and they'd make for great door edges, allowing for easily
opening flush-mounted doors without large gaps.
Right now, I'm shaving some 1x2 and 1x3 bricks for this purpose,
by beveling a corner so that it's roughly like
1/4 of a 1x1 round (or a little thicker, for less than 90-degree
opening angle).
