Cigarette Ashes

In reality, your cigarette burns down to ashes. This could be reflected in-game with simple gray pixels going up your cigarette. You can flick them off into an ashtray or the floor manually, but they will fall off eventually.

Seems interesting.

How would the ashes be represented when it falls off? Is it sorta just invisible or does it accumulate into something a little more noticeable?
If they're represented, do you think there might be some room for chemical tracing with regards to scans, or is that too much of a stretch?
Would cigars have any differences?
I understand that pipes right now allow you to empty out the ash, which does have representation as a small pile of ash. But... how many times could you "remove ash" from a cigarette?

There's also the matter of how you flick them in terms of controls. afaik at the time of this writing, you can activate the cigarette in your hand (with any intent) to drop it on the ground and put it out with your foot. Using it on yourself allows you to take a drag from it (also with any intent    i think       i guess my cigarette arm grinding days are over).
What could you do to flick the ash? A verb, maybe? Different intents? Clicking on the floor (bearing in mind clicking on ashtrays with a cigarette just grinds them out)?
