  • Orientation - angle from?
  • Piece name - there could be another file that gives descriptions of many standard field elements, for instance PVC pipes.
  • Piece modifiers - the particular piece you choose might have several modifiers specified. For instance, with PVC pipes there is length, radius, etc.

Just some thoughts.

--EDIT--
This format would also allow easy tweaking by the user, without the need of much of an external utility. Very nice at the beginning.
