New Scratch Block in Sensing

I would really really really like to have a new block in sensing. It's a block that's like: "______touching_______?" There's one called "color_touching color_?", but that's for the sprite that you are scripting now. This new script would be for two other sprites. For example: When I receive hello
              if Sprite2 touching Sprite3?
              move 10 steps
Scratch doesn't have that block now, so if it Sprite2 was touching Sprite3, you would have to put exactly where Sprite2 is on the screen, so it would be like: When I receive hello
                                              if x position of Sprite2=43 and y position of Sprite2=-102
                                                                                                          Move 10 steps
See what I mean? having a "______touching______?" block in Sensing would save A LOT of time.

No, my suggestion block is for two other sprites that are touching each other, not the one you are scripting right now. So basically, the block has absolutely nothing to do with the sprite you are scripting.  If you were scripting Sprite3, the block with sprites filled in would be <Sprite2 touching Sprite1?>.

In Scratch 1.4, I'm pretty sure there is no block in Sensing like that. Unless <[sprite<] means the sprite you are scripting right now. Which is not what I was looking for. See, my suggested block's main purpose is to have nothing to do with the sprite you are scripting. If I scripting Sprite1, the block would have nothing to do with that. I would be like: <Sprite2 touching Sprite3?>
