Is your feature request related to a problem?

The problem is when I try to print aprts in ABS or Nylon or any other material that is prone to shrinkage/warping hence lifting off from the printbed I will use brim. I also would like to have a very close skirt (aka draftshield) but when I make the brim wide then the Skirt moves away. What I actually do from time to time in cad is that I draw a thick (0.7-.8mm) brim around the part and a 1-1.5mm thich draft shield around the part. So when the part tries to lift off it is held down by these "two sacrifical parts".

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like to be able to specify thickness of the brim and the placement of the skirt relative to the part, not the brim.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Drawing this in CAD :(

Additional context

Possibly add a sekond "Skirt" name it draftshield.. Would be even more helpful against warping..
