Bottom Layer Horizontal SizeCompensation

I've had a few situations where, in the process of using a thicker bottom linewidth, or while printing complex print-in-place designs like geared bearings, where the bottom most layer glues together (or leaves energy sucking flaps) on the outermost edges of the bottom layer of the part. I propose th...
