Presume the one you encountered was "The Love Pirate"? There's a few more
of mine featuring the move:

(One really must stress the timing of the move for contra dancers or
they'll fly through it in half the time (you can only build in so much
"shock absorber" capacity otherwise to deal with that). I replaced a HitW
in another new (not as yet posted) dance because I believed dancers would
tend to rush it and an alternative approach would be more robust there (it
wasn't central to the theme in that one).)
There's a few more of my ECD-feely dances currently posted:

I'm pretty happy with the choreography, generally.
I think adding a
Gents' chain would serve to make the dance less accessible, and that wasn't
my goal in writing it.
I recently picked up a dance by Don Veino that has an English figure in
it, too. I think the figure is called Hole in the Wall? That's another
figure I'd love to see plopped into more contra choreography for
easy/intermediate dances!
