Use small endmill to mill holes of various sizes

From Dave Z: Hello. I love the pcbgcode add on but I can't use it. I have an ATC on my stepcraft 420 machine which is what I use for making boards but it only holds 5 bits and many of the parts I use have several different sized holes. What I have been doing to work around this is exporting the DXF file and importing it into VCarve. Then I use a 1/32 end mill and do a profile cut inside each hole. I'm not much of a coder but I would think that this would be fairly easy enough to add and it would save having to have multiple drills in a rack as well as being able to cut even large holes for mounting etc.
