Brim painting
It would be great if brim could be 'painted, like for support or seams, I had a recent print where there was just a tiny part that would have needed brim to hold on the plate, it was just after 3hours print that it fell off, ruining the print. I hope it's not a duplicate, I didn't find any similar request in the forum
Cheers, keep on the great work on Prusaslicer 🙂

I would submit this as a suggestion on github.

oh yep you're right 😮 I missed that
RE: Brim painting
I see you already opened an issue, I was going to mention that before opening new ones you need to search to see if one already exists. In this case it does https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/issues/8283 . With over 2000 open issues and many more closed ones it is quite likely to already have been requested.
RE: Brim painting
Not saying it's not a good idea but maybe just placing a part that area and making it one layer high might do (like Mickey Mouse ears on the corners of large objects to avoid warping).

RE:
You can already put a brim anywhere you want, in any shape you want, on any object you want. This is not a belittlement of you or anyone else. you just need to educate yourself on the use of modifiers. This is still possible in 2.5 alpha as well.
Good Luck

RE: Brim painting
Yep thanks for that advice, I think I have to revise my search techniques, didn't find it, should probably have insisted a bit there 🙄
RE: Brim painting
The modifiers are indeed a good alternative, I think the Brim painting is still an interesting feature for future releases,and I probably wasn't thinking of this is because the parts were very small and I was too much focused on other possible failures; well, we'll see what future brings 🙂

Is there a way to specify that the added modifiers are to be classified as a brim though? While I haven't done it, my understanding is that the "brim separation" value can be tuned such that a brim provides good support to a part, but can be easily peeled off without leaving excess material and without a deburring tool. Do brims tuned in this way assist with holding down sharp corners?

nice boosting service
RE: Brim painting
Modifiers are a really cool thing, but not everyone knows about them or doesn’t know how to use them
Patience - this is the key to success

Maybe this will help you.
