New support types?

Hi, I use Simplify3d on a daily basis and love the level of control it gives. The one area I would like to have more options is support structures. I would like to select from a variety of support shapes and possibly the direction of the way it is orientated. The original zigzag is good but the option of pylons like in the support visualization, a honeycomb and a hatch would be awesome. Anyone else agree or would like to see other shapes?

You can set the support direction in the Support tab; I do this frequently to ensure that the support ends up perpendicular to the section being supported. Not sure what the benefit of anything other than a grid would be though.
