Useful suggestion (coding element)

    So I was busy thinking about something useful for powder toy and came up with something. Basically its an element that has a code line configured to it and when sparked, it activates the code.
    Now, I may not find this useful as I do not use the console, but it might help many other people.
    Firstly, you place the particle, then with the particle still selected, you right click it . This will bring up a console in the middle of the screen.
    You then type what you want, example; !set type all dust
    Then you press save, a note will come up saying, successful line !set type all dust
    You then set it up to metl and spark the metel, when the spark reached the element, it will activate the line as if it were typed into the console.
    The uses would be things like resetting calculators or exploding stuff.
    Ugh, I just read over it and it sounds.like a bad grammar zombie hit it and munched the clever right out.
    Sorry for bad english, english is my first language :p
