Sadly, in the GUI, it would be really nice if I could do something like:

module myObj() { import("bla.stl"); }

myObjDimensions = dimensions(myObj);

translate([0, 0, myObjDimensions.z]) cube();

But this couldn't even be a valid SCAD code...

I am sure that a patch which implemented that would be gladly accepted.
