Onion skin for meshes

My proposal is Onion Skin for Meshes , maybe using the new Wireframe method or something inspired by it ..

Onion skin can be usefull applied on bones sure ..

But Onion skin can be used for animation very well Expecially for squash ad stretches..

Its weird how such a feature isn't present , when its in Gmod , that isn't even a dedicated software for Animation nor 3D art !

There are currently addons available to do onion skin; I'm currently aware of three (in 3D viewport), I've only tried one. Afaik, they all duplicate the mesh-object(s) and apply their modifiers across a time range.

Not as good as Ghost for armatures and a similar official implementation for meshes

Ghost Frames - This particularly uses the camera, and makes onion-skin screenshots.

@Edtion: the 3D Onion Toolz Skinz is almost impossible to use , it never works D: it may be outdated or something ,also the most promising one GhostFrames has no download
