Would it be possible to add an option where the entire first layer (for all objects) gets printed up front before moving on to completing the individual objects? To clarify, this would mean that after completing one object, it would move on to layer two of the next one, since the base would already be there. I believe this would be beneficial for a couple reasons:
Since slightly different temperature settings are frequently used for the base layer, this would eliminate the need to re-implement them for each new object jump.
If a there is a bed adhesion failure, it will be much easier to catch and cancel early as opposed to hoping to catch it at the right time after switching objects, likely several hours into the print, potentially resulting in a large mess of wasted material. This is especially prevalent for overnight prints.
The only drawback I can see is that if there is a layer-shift failure, the base will be off. As of yet, I have never had this happen, so it isn't a concern for me. Reason 2 above is my main motivation for this feature, and it would still leave the other benefits of complete individual objects (breaking loose from the bed at upper layers, filament run-out, decreased travel) in place while giving confidence that every object will have a stable base before moving on.
