Add fasteners as an option to the Tube & Pipe styles when a style is set to flanged. Allow the user to set, as a rule, what type of bolts, studs, washers, nuts etc, are allowed on a particular pipe style, and then whenever a flanged fitting is placed, automatically create the bolted connection for that item, based on the specifics set up in the rule.
It's just a thought.
