[Wish-suggestion] Bake+Reference geometry option.

Hi!,

I've been working on a really heavy model in GH for two months. In that process, sometime I've needed to bake geometry in a intermediate step of the process and refence it to GH again to disable first components in my definition to focus process power in the next stage.

Could be posible o add a button or option to bake+reference geometry or data in some point of the definition? (layer and grouping options could be great but not a priority).

Best Regards.

I would like to use the in-viewport feature that Maxwell Fire provides in the newest version. But as far as I know that requires actual geometry in Rhino. The Geometry Cache components works very well in providing this. Would it be possible to trigger this component externally? For example through a ghowl message ? I've interfaced grasshopper and rhino with an external program. So I would like to be able to press the button without actually pressing the button :). I would use the external program to send a "refresh" command.

Anybody have an idea on how to do this? Thanks!
