      1. No idea if this is possible, but was wondering if it would be feasible to reduce line weight beyond what sketchup is capable of doing at the moment? (example: 'select line' -> then 'option' -> then 'reduce line weight') and,

      2. A hatching tool - where for example you select a face, then press hatch and the face is hatched with dashed lines or whatever.

        Hi,

        SketchUp can only render lines of 1px thickness or more. But by placing your SketchUp model in LayOut (you'll need SketchUp Pro), you can define the thickness of lines in points, not pixels- and thereby reduce the visual appearance of line weight.
