Normal/parallel offset in vertical profile

In ORD it is possible to do a Profile Offset Transition. This methode makes a vertical offset. In case of a slope, the difference between the vertical offset and the normal/parallel offset is different. For large slopes, this is differences is too big to ignore. Especially when designing drillings, it is useful to have a normal/parallel offset.

    I have attached a screenshot. The top line is the active profile. Left, right and below you see the vertical offset of 2m. At the slope side the offset of 2m is reduced to 1.3254m. At the vertical wall on the right side, you see the green offset of 2m and no offset created with the profile offset transition.
