I'll be testing using it for my designs also and report findings. BRLCAD has a lot of translation capabilities,
so could be the power tool and some folks use FreeCAD as the beginner tool.

In electronics, gEDA tools have a few more capabilities and a scriptable style
than KiCAD, so it falls out the same -- experienced
sometimes use both, mostly use gEDA tools, and translators
are coming soon, so KiCAD can benefit from
existing designs and libraries of parts, and vice versa.
