CC: Rest Machining for Contour toolpath

It would handy if the Contour toolpath had Rest Machining as an option.

Currently cutting out anything that has small details requires either creating an outside offset and pocketing with Rest Machining, or creating geometry in the tight areas and pocketing with smaller tools. Rest Machining on the Contour would eliminate the need to create extra geometry as workarounds and save some cutting time.

If anyone knows of other more efficient workarounds, please share what they are. Thanks!
