Ok.  I think the overloading on B is good.  It could behave exactly as
I describe in the original email, with that addition (particular to
the flip tool).  The rest of the original email stands and I'd be
interested in your opinions on it.  I could do the work involved or
not.  I think it would improve pcb but of course if it's not wanted I
don't want to spend the time on it.
