I have seen similar things done with full control, but it is complicated.  So a slicer that could do this would be amazing.  Though I am mot sure it can actually match the quality of you full contact supports.
Has anyone here played with full control?

Interesting innovation. I'd like to see how well it works. I'd probably use it along with full contact support since there ARE use cases which can still be tricky.

OK... I downloaded the Wave overhang version of OS and turned on the wave overhang check and sliced a part with an obvious 90 degree overhang. It did nothing different. 
Whoops.
