Structural shapes (toolbox) not in weld?

Toolbox has a nice, extensive set of structural profiles which can be used to build weldments like you would a normal part (grow one feature at a time).

A much more powerful way to build weldments is to build them from a 3D sketch, in which case, you use the Weldment/structural-member to generate the model and use trim at the intersections.

Well, the Weldment/structural-member dialog box knows nothing of the Toolbox set of structural profiles. You'd think they'd draw from the same set of resources.

Is there some way to let Weldment work with toolbox-profiles?
