Direct Modeling
I always dreamed for this modeling technology applied to non cad programs. It's similar to the one we can find in Sketchup but on Form-Z it's way superior. Speedflow or HardOps can't do this type of modeling. Please watch this old video

You need to be a lot more specific when making a proposal. It's not really sufficient to post a link to an "old video" of another application and say, "Make it like this".
What is the exact feature you're proposing? How would it look like and work in Blender? Does it require a new kind of primitive (Blender isn't a parametric modeler)? Include mock-up images that show your idea in Blender.
* @Jason van Gumster * Direct modeling in a well known modeling technology. It's used by many cad-cam programs like Creo, Sketchup, Spececlaim, Form-Z, Fusion360 and many others. I don't want a parametric modeling feature. For example Spaceclaim is not parametric, no construction history. I'd like to have this technology for hard surface modeling inside Blender.
* @gelfodesign * Then, yeah, that needs to be part of your proposal because from what you posted, that isn't clear.
I think this could fit to the precision modeling thread on the Blender developers thread: devtalk.blender.org/t/discussions-for-better-snapping-and-precision-modeling-to-come/5351
I believe this add-on does at least part of what you're talking about: github.com/capnm/b8ExtrudePull . Similar addon for 2.79: youtube.com/watch
