There ought to be a way to represent survey information which only establishes a vertical relationship between two stations. Similarly for purely horizontal information - for example, some GPS units don't store the altitude of waypoints. This has actually been on the Survex TODO list for ages, but the focus has generally been on features which users actually want and I think you're the first person to actually ask about it!
