What do you think about adding STL support? Although it's a pain to have one more step in between CSG and actually printing/cutting what you create, I think it makes sense. In particular, because of the rapid progress of projects like Slic3r (STL->gcode) and Marlin (firmware for 3D printers) a CSG project decoupled from these efforts would be a great boon to the community. In other words, ImplicitCAD can focus on what it does best, without worrying about gcode incompatibilities between versions of firmware etc.
