PLEASE Add "4-Corner Manipulation" to Fuselage & Wing Parts!

I've been sitting on this request -- one of many -- for months now but I've reached my breaking point and have to make it. :(
So many instances where I'm trying to design a piece, but the way I need it to be modified ends up being completely the opposite of how SP allows it!

If I were able to manipulate the 4 corners of a side, to drag its position around, exclusive from the rest... The sky would be the limit now in terms of the incredible things we could make, simply due to the new shapes. we'd be able to make, when combined with Curved, Smooth, and Circular.

It would be the perfect complimentary feature for the Slice tool, in my opinion.
BONUS REQUEST: Add the Slice function to even the Static Parts, so we can re-purpose various things by using just a portion of their model, instead of re-creating the entire part through a dozen parts. Similar to what Cockpit parts did for us.

(In an effort to not make this a Mega Wall of Texttm, I'm not going to drone on to explain the vast ways I could use such a feature.)

Thanks :P

    @CrimsonOnigiri Exactly. The Wings can do this sort of already, so it's not a stretch (pardon the pun) to have similar capability on basic Fuselage ends.
    .
    This would also let us slim down a single corner of a Fuselage part. Similar to what Slice does, but at a / instead of the + that Slice currently does.
    .
    Although, my new Slice discovery I just posted a new thread about could aid with this a little bit, but it wouldn't be nearly as user-friendly as just letting us move the corners visually.

    This. This is exactly what I was looking for. So many instances where it would've been so much more efficient to move the corners
