There can be a lot of instances on a project where a detail in a section is not practical to model 3D, and the user feels compelled draw the element live in the drawing model. It would be great to capture live elements with annotation groups, as the power of auto-annotations increase. This is perhaps most common in bridge drawings, where small structural details might require an absorbent amount of time to properly model, yet the time to draft such a detail in a section is very small. One could apply this to many discipline and workflows, anytime the user determines the effort to model an element is not worth the effort.

Take another step further: imagine if you opened a blank drawing model and started sketching out a typical section of a road, where you could apply an annotation group and auto label that typical section! All of this is possible if we could capture live elements in a drawing model with annotation groups.
