No functions for line manipulation?

Hi,
I've haven't found any functions for manipulation of Vector and Line objects.
Something like:
var line1 = line(vector(x1, y1), vector(d1, d2));
var line2 = opRotate(line1, vector(p1, p2), 90 * degree);
var vector3 = opIntersection(lineA, lineB);
Am I missing something or do I really have to write them myself?
I know about opTransform but I don't see how to use it for Line objects for example.
And everything I've found about intersection is related to planes and booleans.
Regards
Soren

const zAxis = line(vector(0, 0, 0) * inch, vector(0, 0, 1));
var line1 = line(vector(1, 2, 3) * inch, vector(1, 0, 0));
var line2 = rotationAround(zAxis, 90 * degree) * line1;
debug(context, line1);
debug(context, line2);We have plane-plane and plane-line but not line-line intersection functions in the library (surfaceGeometry.fs) at this time.Ilya Baran \ VP, Architecture and FeatureScript \ Onshape Inc5
