>> Still sounds like a faff.

It's on the list of things to do - remember, LightBurn is (up to now) a single developer and just a month over two years old. Not an excuse for lack of functionality, just a reason. I've hired another full time dev starting in March, so I'm hoping that the to-do list will start getting shorter again.
