Extrude by Edges by Rails by Scale option or an added icon

[jessemorton24]

Option can be to measure how much scale by surrounding edges at ends of selected face, of which facing each two selected directions. Or to extrude edges then measure by added space indication at corners of extruded lines; thus selecting surrounding edges to fill in the side blanks between extruded edges and opoosing faces..

My bet is that it has crossed TIG'S unique, gifted mind before any others like me.
