Add transfer data features to Data Channel modifier

Add transfer data features to Data Channel modifier

I've found myself struggling to transfer some UVs from one model to another using the projection that by the way I think is a quite old solution and doesn't give precise results, usually I have to start moving around a lot of vertices and welding them, so I saw this solution from Blender called Transfer Data that I think a quite nice option for doing this process. I tried it for doing the UV transfer and the result is almost perfect. I've seen that some people use it to transfer normals also from one mesh to another. 

I was thinking that a good candidate to have such features is the Data Channel. I think is a powerful modifier that could be improved with this kind of solvers. 
Thanks!

Yes this would be great! I'm not super familiar with the Data Channel Mod but I haven't found a good way to reference data channels from other meshes. Would be super powerful to map one set of vertex IDs onto another mesh based on XYZ cords or something.

Also I just found this witch might be help.

Dara Channel modifier has so much potential.  And I also used the Blender feature to transfer the normal. Very neat trick and a good impression of the program some time ago
