Could you elaborate on this footprint generation work-flow? Are you saying that you draw the footprint pads with lines on top/bottom copper layer, pins with vias, and silk with lines, then you save a “.pcb” layout file for your footprint rather than exporting to a “.fp” element file? I could see this being more convenient for future editing, but the .pcb file would not capture many aspects of the footprint, such as the square-flag for pads/pins.
