Proposal for an improved block remesh modifier

When dealing with the existing block remesh modifier you are presented with an octree depth, scale, and a threshold. The main problem, however, is that the modifier doesn't use a global scale/grid to determine the cube size and location.

Why is this a bad design?

When trying to make a terrain consisting of cubes in Blender, the current modifier design doesn't allow you to use a consistent main grid. You aren't able to merge multiple objects using the modifier well because of it. The current behavior is quite unpredictable, as you can see here:

Another flaw in the existing modifier is the handling of multiple intertwined meshes, it leads to odd results. I propose to implement the improvements made with the voxel remesh modifier into the block remesh modifier. As shown below adding a voxel remesh modifier into the modifier stack already reduces the intersecting issues substantially, although it takes longer to process:

Here's how the full concept would work in Blender:

Block size: Size of the grid, originating from the origin point.
Threshold: Percentage of filled grid volume needed to place a block.
Remove disconnected: Same behavior as the previous modifier.
Smooth shading: Same behavior as the previous modifier.
Grid Origin: Change the grid origin point using an object

I think these changes would make the block remesh modifier a lot more useful in the majority of cases. I'm curious to hear some other thoughts on it as well :)
