Defining the origin of a plane

Is it possible to define the origin of a plane with a vertex and a face you have queried for?
evFaceTangentPlane sets its own origin based a parameter, but we can't pass in a vertex of our choosing.

You can construct a Plane type (which is just data), using the constructor plane(origin is Vector, normal is Vector). You'll need the origin point in world space and the normal vector of the plane you want to match.
You can use this Plane for sketching with newSketchOnPlane, or you can make it an actual plane in the context with opPlane.0
