You will have to add these somehow if you really need them. 

Sometimes you just need to change your methods and settle for something less in order to get a whole lot more.

yes. for this urgency i had to create pair of lines with a 90° angle and put them on a group and went corner by corner with a copy paste

anyways i which there was some feature like this since i like how it looks, its like back in the days when layouts where made by hand

I understand your want .... but ....

You would be better off using a family instead of a group.  Groups tend to slow down the model.  I would make it be 2D linework - in a wall hosted family.  After placing on the one wall face, you can align the other face.  These lines would then turn on / off with the wall and would move with it.
