I checked this new command on Wings3D v2.2.1.

Other interesting things about this command...
If you union two objects whose normal is inverted, the parts touched by the objects are engraved as edges on each object.Biggrin

Coplaner is a failed case even with Boolean operation in other 3D softwares too. (See Overlapping Surface Area)

I'm a bit late concerning this. I recently downloaded and installed 2.2.4, and the first new feature I discovered is the Boolean Test in the menu. Tried it and was happy to see it working;... somewhat. I have Bryce 7.1 (the first program I learned about Boolean operations in) and Blender 2.8 (Which seems to have the most advanced Boolean Operations system I've seen thus far. I hope this gets more advanced over time.

Thanks for providing the mini-tutorial. I hope to see even more indepth tutorials in the future.
