Allow to 'slide' a selected segment or points along adjacent segments, similar to Blender's GG operation

True, Ai is missing these. Voted.
There are two tools that allow this, both from Astute Graphics paid plugin set: Reposition Point Tool and Reform Tool.
I attach a GIF to demonstrate how they work.Notice some interesting moments though.
Reposition Tool tries to maintain the curvature of the path, even when you move a sharp point.
Reprofile works as expected on straight segments, and offsets a curves segments just fine, but won’t 'slide' a segment when adjacent 'rails' are curved — it’s actually an offset, not sliding, and that’s what tool does (amongst it other feature). Still does the job in most cases.(Edited by admin)
