Behavior

New feature request.. Please give an option to change the default location on the bed for new objects, or even add a "randomize" feature.

As some people might not want this.. It could be an option which can be selected in "preferences" to enable/disable this behavour.

I have been making a protype of an model and making back to back test prints of various little parts of the mode.. I make little modifications in CAD and then open/slice/print.. But keep forgetting to move the object.. So they are all printing in the centre of the bed. This has created a blister and I want to avoid using this part of the bed...

I realise I can move the object manually, but I keep forgetting.. And when I start printing and realise what I have done, I either have to carry on and risk damaging the bed.. or stop the print, move the object and try again.

So if there was an option to do this automagically, I believe it could increase the life of the bed for everyone who prints lots single object prints.
