Gmaps and Cliffs?

I am no longer up to date on the capabilities on Graal and I don't have the means to be yet, but still I am very curious about gmaps and cliffs. Needless to say, gmaps and hills is done easily. By cliffs I mean no blending with the surround.

I was thinking if cliffs are not added to gmaps yet, add some nifty keyboard+mouse deal. Currently if you hold CTRL+click on the gmap node dealio and move it up and down, it will stay a whole number. So, add another command like SHIFT+click on the gmap node dealio and rather then creating a hill, the entire square or area goes straight up and stay flat, actually creating a block looking thing. Obviously it could get more complex then that....but I think you get my idea and what I need to do.

Only hills just doesn't cut it. Currently you can make it seem like there is a cliff but it is a rather bad effect without real support and actual changes in the z axis for terrain.
