Wanted: Construct > 'Plane Normal To Edge/Axis At Point' feature

Wanted: Construct > 'Plane Normal To Edge/Axis At Point' feature

I'm trying to get a work plane at the highlighted point, normal to the highlighted axis.

There doesn't seem to be a construction feature for this?

The 'Plane Along Path' should do this, but

a) it doesn't work with axes (reason probably being that it works with relative distance 0.0 .. 1.0 for the point and thus needs the profile to have a beginning and an end)

b) it doesn't snap to points alongside the edge/sketch profile

 

Versions: Fusion 360 1.8.601, OS X 10.8.4

Actually, I would prefer to be able to create a sketch plane directly at that point (normal to the axis). The work plane is just a stepping stone to get to that..

 

Could sketch plane anchoring be made much more relaxed (i.e. selecting an edge/axis means one wants to make a plane normal to it, at some point)? By making certain features very generic, a lot of specialized features could be eliminated.
