Fog of war and Line of sight.

What posibilty exits for, at least, some rudimentary LoS being introduced to FoG. Obviously this does not happen with the TT version but it seems a shame not to harness the power of the computer to carry out tasks that are now fairly routine in the majority of wargames.
The possiblity of hiding units behind hills, ridges and woods would add another dimension to combat; fog of war. The types of battles that could be recreated, or invented when the army builder becomes available, would be greatly enhanced and the all-seeing player/commander would have, realistically, some more things to think about and take into consideration. It would also IMO, add greatly to the single player experience as it would make the AI's intentions less obvious in many instances. Thoughts?
