Hi Jetro,
In LPub3D there is also new functionality to substitute parts in the PLI/BOM. This functionality addresses precisely the second scenario you presented:
Basically, if you already have a substitute part - let's say a shortcut for a PF motor with a nice rolled up cable and connector - then you can add the modeled part and substitute part in the substitute part list available in the Configuration menu under 'Edit BOM/PLI Substitute Part List.' Once added, LPub3D will use the substitute part for the BOM/PLI rendering.
Cheers,
