Feature Request: Intersect & Cut

When extruding a profile in the modeling workspace, I often need the intersection of the extruded profile with a existing part, but I also need to remove the intersecting  part from the source. Currently, the way to achieve this is to make a sufficiently large extrusion, intersect it with the existing body as tool while also keeping that, then subtracting the newly created body from the source while keeping the tool also.

This added operation would not be needed, if there was a combined "intersect and cut" option directly in extrude, sweep, revolve, loft and other tools that provide the existing Boolean operations.

I have attached a Video of me describing the issue.
