Ability for Corridor Horizontal Parametric Constraints to be applied with Reverse Cubic Curves

In our legacy software we could quickly and easily apply a reverse cubic curve tapers for our designs without having to create Geometry and have our lane edges follow that - noting that the Geometry is not actually the required reverse cubic curva...

Geometry Points ruled by Name to allow users to move Points by importing ASCII

Ruling point import by name would add some powerful automation to the software. If a user could import a Point via ASCII and have any existing Points with the same name update (while maintaining the same object) this would allow things like posts ...
