Is there a way to have conditional triggering of loop direction?

Made some test prints a couple of weeks ago and reading up on print quality for overhangs in other printer forums. 

Regarding The option: "Loops Go from inside to Perimeter" 

Can this option be set to be enabled conditionally in a similar fashion to the Support material's "degrees" setting?

Ie, in the [style] tab, for the [Loops Go from inside to Perimeter], have an additional setting of [degrees] where if the code sees that the surface being printed is angled to create overhangs exceeding a certain degree value, the [style][loops go from inside to perimeter] will toggle so that there is better overhang support? 

This way, areas that don't need that kind of inside first printing, will be able to benefit from the better dimensional accuracy of outside first? Perhaps have other settings that can be triggered like mm/sec reduction, added fan cooling, etc.


Another thought would be a small picture/logo for the degrees setting to indicate what is meant by the degrees. I frequently find myself wondering from where the degree measurement is made. :)

Thanks,

Wing.
