It would be great if we could model a free water surface against a slope. This is critical for dam and embankment failure calculations. It could have a simple control where the user enters the elevation and the direction to extend, and it creates a water polygon from edge specified to where it intersects with the slope.

it's easily can be done using scripting language in the current version. simply write a for/loop and search for boundary edges in the interest region and apply appropriate normal stress to each edge based on there depth relative to the water surface.
