Introduce a way to control the cross-section for 3D Inflate profile
For "Inflate", it would be cool to have a curves/profile editor to modify the cross-section more than the Volume slider currently allows. Currently it seems that turning down the volume essentially pancakes the object - and sometimes that's a good look! But it would be nice to have the option to retain an overall "bubble" feel like the object has at 100% Volume.

An ability to create custom bevel profiles for 3D and Materials Extrude

I tried to see if using a Bevel and Extrude would work to have less flattened look.. it does indeed, but it obviously adds sharper corners than inflate does.
For me the idea makes perfect sense, and It’d be happy just toe get a second value to control the curve, similar to how it's done in a lesser known Xara (but for blend profiles, see the GIF)... it does not offer the same for the bevel profiles (and has presets only), but does allow to make the corners smooth )the second GIF).
