An intermediate between //stack and //move

[JoakimThorsen]

The Problem

A visual demonstration is probably the easiest:

The starting position:

The ideal result:

The current closest alternatives:

//move: //stack:

A Solution

It's possible to estimate this result by using three commands:

//copy
/tp @s ^ ^ ^1 (move one forwards)
//paste

but then you have the issue where offsets bigger than 1 block mean your facing direction needs to be very exact

Alternatives:

• a flag for //move that makes the command "copy and paste" rather than the current "cut and paste"
• a flag for //stack that allows it to overwrite the selection
• a new command, e.g. //extend, //offset, whatever

Alternatives

In addition, would be nice to accept single integers for [offset] as equivalent to ^x,0,0, so it works a little closer to move.
