If the confusion between LDraw xNNN.dat (NNN.dat) numbers and peeron

Wouldn't it be best to create 'inventorying policy'? Inventorying is
much faster than actually modelling the parts, so the {ldraw} part
library is {in my eyes} just a subset of peeron library.

And while you think about some new policies, some 'length' property for
parts with variable lengths (strings, hoses, tubing) would be useful too.

Regarding inventories, there should be also a way to differentiate
between two sets with the same model, same number, but different parts.
This probably belongs somewhere else, but maybe Dan reads that ;-)
