Excellent, but don't forget some mechanism for 'spike' and 'thread' as well as 'bolt', and deviations. Obviously blob+line is a lot better than nothing but to a useful rigging guide needs the above details too IMHO. And then there is traverse lines. Will the existing code do a catenary hang between points? And for an implmentation that would actually work in practice some mechanism to have the rope not hang 'through' rocks and floors is needed - that could be trickier...
