New Area feature: Area switch [S-Area]

Hello,
Actually, switching two areas is kinda hard and a pain to make (using pistons). By "switching", I mean having 2 Areas on the same place but not at the same time, and when one area appears, the other disappears.
What about adding a new sign, [S-Area]? Third line for the first Area, fourth for the other. The area between "-" would be the one activated, and it may be switched with a rising redstone edge or a right-click.
Thanks for reading, and I hope you'll like it.

Er, no. Actually you can activate or disactivate an area. With a switch, you activate either the one on the third line or the one on the fourth line.
For example:
{namespace}
[S-Area]
MyArea
-YourArea-
Then I trigger it:
{namespace}
[S-Area]
-MyArea-
YourArea
So YourArea disappeared, and MyArea appeared. It may be very useful for overlapping Areas.

I'm pretty sure it works like that, unless there is so etching that I'm missing?

Yeah, it works like that. A year I use CraftBook and I never saw that. I'll go edit the wiki right away, and then deep some grave somewhere. Sorry for the useless ticket...
Edit: edited the wiki "You can therefore put multiple areas on one sign." for dumb people like me.

Well, it said "The third line should be the areas on state, whilst the fourth line should be its off state, which can be left blank." so I basically understood as "The fourth line isn't used".
