Yes it would be great if user would be able to control Loft orientation at sections. I remember when Ruled surface didn't have orientation control:
viewtopic.php?f=3&t=2337
User couldn't do much about it. After if i remember correctly Werner added Orientation property:
User could control behaviour in all conditions. But it wasn’t trivial commit if i remember correctly therefore i am guessing much work would be needed to add user section control for Loft feature. But then again that would take Loft feature to that next level we all hope for it will get someday.

Re: Swapped edges on loft
Definitely not, because the behaviour is the same in 0.16 and 0.17. It isn't a bug, not even an issue. The documentation statesKunda1 wrote: ↑Sat Jun 03, 2017 3:52 pm Ref ticket:issue #2508Is this a PDN blocker?Abdullah wrote:ping
F2 is twisted 45° so the twist is expected.This means that if one is doing a loft between two squares, the maximum twist possible is <45°.

Re: Swapped edges on loft
I am always unsure how to handle the discussion. Should I enter comments in the ticket as well?

Re: Swapped edges on loft
Since this is more a discussion topic I don't enter it in the bugtracker:

(quote from the tracker)
A blocker is (to me) an issue prohibiting roll out of a stable version. Since the behaviour exists for years, probably since Loft exists, I don't think it should block v 0.17.abdulla wrote: It is as a PDN blocker as it is a Part blocker, i.e. the same issue happens in PDN.
The documentation is clear about angles < 45° degrees. They are not twisted. That may imply that for angles >45° the loft has to be twisted, because the opposite angle is less than 45° degrees. Alas, the docs say nothing about an angle = 45°, and that's what we have here twice. So it boils down to a precision issue, one of the angles being less and one being greater than 45° degrees. The only thing we could do to make it unique is to prohibit lofting if an angle=45° is recognized.I am not sure that profile is overtwisted (as per documentation). I would tend to think that if the one half of the arc was possible, the other half should be possible as well.
What I understand from the documentation is that if the twist would me more than 45º, the selection of correspondance would change so as to minimize the twist.
