Preheat at end of print

Is it possible to change the start G code to question whether to preheat the nozzle and bed for when after the print has finished?

This would be useful if you wanted to batch print things or change filament without having to heat again.

I have added the following in the End G code, but this isn't very good if I'm printing something overnight and it finishes in the early morning, so the printer will ask each time if I wanted to keep the heat on.

M104 S215 ; preheat temperature
M140 S60 ; preheat bed

the auto shutdown would be triggered eventually if you didn't get to it soon enough.
I can't imagine it would save that much time since it reaches those temps in a couple of minutes tops, but the ending gcode is probably your best bet. you could just make a profile for each scenario depending on whether you want it to stay hot.
