[ODE] Angular and "slider" motor together on one body.

[Geoff Carlton]

What you describe is a linear motor, and has been discussed before 
(search for LMotor), but never implemented.  As such, you can either 
create such a joint using the resources posted in the other reply (if 
you do, submit it so we can all use it!), or keep using the AddForce 
approach you are doing now.
