I voted for shoreline blind, but the same concept should include a mark as well as a blind.
I have always considdered the week or so "shore braking" a dog the worst time period in a "basics program", and IMHO teaching a dog to hold it's line on entry is part of this.
I said down the shore. My second choice was into the wind. I work all of the above concepts routinely but work shoreline the most. I believe past a point is a variation on the same theme.

I vote for down the shore marks / blinds. Points are also part of the concept.
