I would like to be able to View normal to a surface.
View tool(?)-> click on a surface, view is oriented so that it is
normal to that surface (option to flip 180 degrees would be helpful
if flip is polar opposite of desired orientation).

Also, from there, it would be nice to save that view to
come back to it later (add a view tool box?).
This is good for when setting up a
shape/profile to extrude and later modify when needed.

Could also take from this idea, and orient a part from one face to another face/feature, aligning x to x, x to y, etc.

Just a thought.

View the plane (right click) -- is good for looking at a surface

Could we have a shortcut for 'View the Plane' ?
F.i. as a preset in the trackball and under 'right click - view' ?
