Add an any option to the <touching( )?) block

I think that there should be an option to have everything as an option for stuff like to let you know that you're touching something. I think this should be added since it's a ton of work doing this:

<<<<touching(object1)?>and <<touching(object2)?>>> and <<<<touching(object3)?> and <<touching(object 4)?>>>

Instead. It could just be this:

<touching [ any] ?>

That's why I think Scratch should add an “any” option to the
<touching [ ] ?>
block

Edit: also it doesn’t trigger when touching the stage, btw.

It will always report true, for it is touching the stage, I presume that the stage is excluded, right?

It wasn’t intended to be inappropriate, actually. You’re the one with a twisted mind. (No offense)

This has already been suggested:
https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/topic/86884/ (suggests multiple related blocks)
https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/post/14147/
Also kinda related:
https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/post/138601/
https://scratch.mit.edu/discuss/post/6725872/ (includes something similar to the block in the first topic but with a dropdown for the sprite)

That's what the topic creator was trying to do lol, but the topic creator didn't know how to add dropdowns to scratchblocks
