Guess I replied way too soon. I may revise my earlier reply after giving it some
more thought. A 1/4 cylinder with both ends closed would of course be better for
rounded cornerns.
A cylinder with both ends open could be useful when making pipe-like shapes in
the likeness of stud2 and stud4, and holes. Don't know yet how commonly needed
they would be.
The question is: How common should a combined primitive have to be before it is
motivated to issue a .dat file for it? Guess it also depends on how many lines
can be saved and how hard it is to calculate and write by hand...
