At the very least, things like metal cables are a good way to get around some of that. Of course it's situational so you'd have to gear up properly, like the metal bender cops do. But it still is an example of metalbending with fluid motion. As technology advances, we may see more things with metalbending.

As far as solid rock to sand, I never doubted that. I wondered if an earthbender could turn sand back into solid rock.
