New switch components for circuitikz

Question

I was looking for a normally closed switch in circuitikz, but with a closing or opening arrow. Since I couldn't find them, I coded them myself. It's mostly a copy-paste of the normally closed switch and the opening spst/closing spst. Note that the symbols are slightly wider than the normally closed switch which is implemented at the moment.

Answer 1

I would advocate to let the size of the switch as it is (basically for backward compatibility) and use a slightly smaller arc:
