offset, and offset with draft

I know these features exist, but they're buried inside the edit - offset command where they aren't obvious to find or for that matter, easy to use.

why is it that I can go to the edit-offset, use the expand with draft feature, and create an extrude with draft based on an internal or external sketch, but I can't create draft with a normal extrude feature at the same time? the functionality is clearly there?

and why can I offset and expand a feature from a reference surface, but I can't extrude and offset it FROM a reference surface instead? it's the same thing only backwards.

yes, these are two pieces of SW functionality that I used all the time and found very useful. I can sort of get them halfway from Pro-E but it seems like they could be implemented easily.

using WF5/Creo. maybe these features will actually work in the real Creo?
