Flow Rate Display

Hi,

When I monitor a print, I really like to see the rate in cubic mm per-second of filament being extruded. It Helps me tune the max speed I'm printing at. Would it be possible to add filament feed rate and mm/ps speed of the head to Machine Control Panel?

Thanks.

This would probably have to happen on the firmware, since the firmware constantly adjusts the speeds and commands that are sent from the host computer due to things like acceleration, limits, etc. It's probably pretty easy to edit the firmware to display it on the LCD though
