Project point to surface?

I see a component to project curves onto surface, but I just want to project points. Is there a component that I'm just not seeing? The curve-to-surface won't take a point.

Otherwise, I've just been moving the point beyond the surface, getting a line between the points, and then getting the intersection of the line and the surface. Just looking to simplify.

Thanks!

I just realized that the Line|Surface intersection takes the line to be infinite, so I don't have to actually pierce the surface. That is convenient. I guess this way is easy enough actually.

Still, a sort of Drape definitely makes sense as a component.

I'll put it on the list.
