Feature request, overextrusion due to infill/perimeter overlap

Hello, I'm not sure if this issue already exists, or what the process is for submitting a feature request.

I am using PrusaSlicer with a custom built large scale printer.  As the movement is less precise, I am using a relatively large infill\perimeter overlap of 40%.  When using infill over short gaps, this extra length causes an overextrusion and a buildup of plastic.  For large areas with longer infill passes, the error is less noticeable.

I was wondering if a feature could be added to scale the effective extrusion multiplier based on the length of the infill pass and the percent overlap.  For example, if filling a gap of 10mm, with an infill overlap of 0.1mm, the extrusion multiplier on that pass only would be (10mm)/(10mm+0.1mm+0.1mm) = 0.9804
