The Object.getData().castToShape() construct is generally not a good idea since a data object
is created (but not used) and a pointer to it's shape is retrieved which is well used.
The data object will get deleted by the garbage collector and the pointer will become invalid.
Launched a textual search on the use of '.castToShape()' in my scripts ...
Missed the correct button and the search was in all files.
Found the construction here:

Found the construction here:
- HatchFromSelection.js: HatchFromSelection.traverse() 3x
Explode.js: Explode.explodeEntity 4x
qcadscripts.dll: InfoPolylineArea.prototype.pickEntity
