Curtain/Glass Wall Improvements

[Linicks]

Request:

Allow the insertion of doors and other objects into curtain/glass walls, or merge the current functionality with the standard wall tool.

Justification:

Currently the curtain/glass wall tool doesn't allow the insertion of typical components like doors. This is confusing for new users, and is not very efficient for experienced users that want to complete their work quickly. There are methods of working around this by using the standard wall tool and manipulating it to get the desired results. However, this raises the question of the purpose of a separate glass wall tool. A potential solution may be merging the current glass wall functionality with the standard wall tool by adding a glass wall type, and options that would allow customizations like the mullion placement, and the type of glass and it's efficiency rating, etc. This functionality would be very welcomed even if they were just added to the dedicated glass/curtain wall tool.
