[Suggestion] Foci Automati and Golem Turrets/Turret Golems #35

It would be nice to have a way to produce the effects of some foci automatically from blocks, using CV and a redstone signal to cast. For example, using a fire or lightning focus to kill mobs, or using an excavation focus to break blocks in a more controlled manner then the arcane bore. Or being able to use a portable hole at the push of a button.

I don't know how possible it is, but it would be nice if such a block would have automatic support for all foci, though if such a thing is not easily possible then simply having a specialized block for every foci would be fine too. It would also be great if these blocks utilized any enhancements that have been applied to the focus used.

Also, it would be nice to have a way to immobilize golems while still allowing them to perform work they are capable of reaching. Ideally, this would be a block which you can place a golem in to trap it, possibly with the ability to release it with a redstone signal. However, if it would be easier, it would also be fine to instead have a line of immobile 'turret golems', which can accept upgrades and cores just like a normal golem and can perform all the work that it's capable of reaching.
