Add a merge modifier to the modifier stack.

Some modifiers have a "Merge" option like "Array" and "Mirror". Other doesn't have it but need it. Example the "Simple Deform" when using the bend function. To work further we need to apply all modifiers before we add a subsurf. In the future there will be other modifiers who need the Merge function as well.

PROPOSAL: create a separated "Merge modifier". This modifier can be used at every moment in the stack when there is need for. ( mostly before subsurf ).

You mean like a modifier for the Remove Duplicates function? Cool.

* @ammusionist * I always imagined this in that same modifier, as a radio button: either split or merge vertices

Thanks for making the weld-modifier. You can change status to DONE

I think the answers to anything regarding the modifiers is the "everything nodes" project. I would imagen with it any action can be turned into some kind of node based modifier.

* @Andersh * Yes - all nodes would be better. But at the moment I miss it sometimes.
