Summary: CAD blocks should be converted to detail families on explode of imported \ inserted DWGs
Description: for users migrating from AutoCAD, one of the biggest time-consuming tasks is bringing CAD details into Revit -- many offices have hundreds of 2D CAD files that can be imported as a detail family, but it would save a huge amount of time, if the process was as simple as drag and drop -- this currently involves many many steps to (import, scale, explode, change linetypes\text styles, save as a detail family and load it -- it could be reduced to one or two steps if the workflow was made more efficient, and user-friendly, and the creation of countless new undesirable linetypes\hatches\textstyles could also eliminated.
