Filament select MMU2
There are two problems I have with the filament select when printing in single-filament mode:
1) It requires an action from me, but does not make a noise indicating that I have to interact with it. It would be nice if this changed in the future
2) It requires that I get up and walk to the printer, which is only a few feet away, to select the desired filament and press the button to activate the selection. It would be a lot easier on me if I could select the filament in slic3r. Not everyone is able to stand up without any pain, and for me, the act of standing is an exercise in pain management. I have sometimes sat for half an hour trying to work up to withstanding the pain; meanwhile, nothing is printing. Have mercy on those of us who have physical issues, and let us select the filament at slicing time.

we might regret it but yes.
having a beep on an mmu fail load/unload would be nice
I have a Prusa,therefore I research.

Use the full color profiles instead of the single color. Then just assign an extruder to the object like you do with multi-filament prints. It works just fine and doesn't require you to get up and go to the printer.
