Diagonal Symmetry Plane

When I am building in the sandbox mode I love the fact that I can mirror my build on the other side of my ship, however when trying to build something with 4-way symmetry I have to place the design multiple times, this is suboptimal for many obvious reasons.

A simple way to fix this would be to add a diagonal symmetry plane.

Let's say you just had the red and blue planes active. If you were to extend the blue line of blocks the red line of blocks would not extend

Now if there were a diagonal plane (shown by the yellow colored glass)

Placing a block extending the blue line of blocks would also extend the red line of blocks

A similar plane would also need to be added for interactions between the blue and green planes, as well as the red and green planes. Not sure what the colors should be, but it could just be the RGB mix of whatever planes they are combining
