suggestion for empty-filament-reload routine

When the filament runs out, firmware provides the option to unload then start the load routine.  However, I had the distinct displeasure of the filament hanging up in a hot-end and didn't get pushed down, thus hanging up on the filament load routine.  The only choices were at that decision tree:

  • yes, it's good
  • no it needs to be loaded (which gave the gear a speedier revolution, then proceeded to go slow)
  • no, color is incorrect (which just pushed more filament slowly)

In my situation, I couldn't unload or pull the new filament out to re-cut the end and re-try it.  Only decision here was to hit reset and abort my 10 hour print, heat the hot-end back up and unload the filament, cut the end again and then re-try loading.

To resolve this, Could another decision option of "unload" be added?  That way if the filament doesn't feed on the load there's an "unload" option to back it out and retry the load function.

-Thanks!
