Neosanding add on to slic3r or colorprint?

I'm really interested if this could be something added into slic3r or colorprint.

Here's how it works:

The nozzle height is the same as the top layer that you want 'sanded' smooth.
The extruder backk ups the filament a bit to avoid oozing.
The nozzle is then moved across the print while hot in an opposing angle to the fill causing any heighted areas to be melted smooth.

oh so is more of a manual process playing with the settings and processes. I don't see a way to replicate it in Slic3r but It would be great to have a 1 button setting for this. It doesn't seem impossible to program since we already know here the top surfaces are.

I am going to have to try this with s3d the results looks pretty amazing

How do we get this to be added to the feature request of Slic3r?

I tried it in S3d with a really simple print and the results are better than what I originally thought
