OK, I don't know exactly if I should bug Ron directly or post it here an hope
he sees it. Since this isn't a bug report but rather a new feature request,
I'll post it here and see what others think about it.
The trace function in the Superpatch is a wonderful thing, but 2 things would
make it even more wonderful (in my opinion, at least):

1) It is rather cumbersome check the normal vector to confirm an intersection -
maybe a new Boolean flag as an indicator?

2) Something I'm currently working at requires a check whether an intersection
occurred within a specified distance from the start point. This extra check is
rather slow; therefore I'd like to have an option of specifying the length of
the trace vector and have trace() return 0 (no intersection) when this length
is exceeded.

Comments? Suggestions? Prompt inclusion in the next Superpatch ;)?

Thanks
Margus
