I am no philosophically opposed to adding:

e) CVPCB functionality.


To this DLL/DSO.   

But the idea the enhances usability for me is being able to identify full 
footprints when I am doing the schematic.  After putting down 30 parts, I can't 
even remember what the first part was, and I've lost the datasheet  ;)

Exaggeration, but not by much.

KiCad has a chasm in the design cycle now.
