A support border to support the boundary of the solid layer

I been having an issue with the supports generated by S3D.

Could it be possible that when generating the support, that within the support a border is printed the sits within the boundary of the solid support layer. so that the ends of the solid support layer can sit on it.

I was thinking to print it as part of the first layer and then every other layer there after.

it's been too often that I have had to print at a high support density because the solid support layer isn't supported and fails to do its job of SUPPORTING the part.

I agree 100%

Im having issues with layers due to no border :(

I can see S3D actually add's a border, AFTER the layer was printed.

When slicing 3dbenchy :(
