I thought it this way:

o Each part can have several custom rotation points - each with a different
name for the user
o The user can select the general rotation point strategy (e.g. world
origine, part center ... part rotation point).
o Here I thought on a future extension where the user can pick one of the
defined rotation points and use it.

I noticed one of Marc Klein's parts had comments for a part rotation
point.  I assume this is because he used MLCad to open the part and saved
it.

It got me thinking, though.  What if a part file had extended commands for
custom part rotation points which MLCad could read and list when the "part
rotation point" is selected in the "rotation point definition" box?  Right
now I can't discern any difference between "part rotation point" and
"custom point", so perhaps "part rotation point" could be used for
rotation points set in the part file itself.

Just a thought.
