I never knew that .dwg files can contain 3d data, I was always under the impression that the file had to be a .dxf in order to carry 3d info.
Depending on how often these type of files are used... it might be worth giving AC the capacity to import such data.

These seem to be unreadable by any program other than AutoCAD (Revit included) unless the files are saved specifically to include the geometry. It's a bit like having an ArchiCAD project without the associated library parts.
I think it is also possible that the 3D geometry in the DWG file has been done using methods the result of which ArchiCAD cannot import.
I recall ACIS models were one such example.
