Output options, Verbose G-code needs sub-options

This option is an all or nothing switch with a note that the additional weight could make the firmware slowdown.

I would like to see some sub-options. For example, 1) Layer comments, 2) everything else. Everything else could be further subdivided into (not a complete list) 1) infill, 2) perimeter, etc. 

Having a comment at the start of each layer that includes the layer number is often enough for troubleshooting. The rest of the verbose comments are needed less often. I would always have the per layer comments enabled and only enable the rest when needed.

if I understand you correctly,

in S3d and in PrusaSlicer you can extend the gcode output, e.g. you can use M117 to output a comment after each layer or tool change:

Macro language (variables) see here: https://github.com/prusa3d/PrusaSlicer/wiki/Slic3r-Prusa-Edition-Macro-Language

Statt zu klagen, dass wir nicht alles haben, was wir wollen, sollten wir lieber dankbar sein, dass wir nicht alles bekommen, was wir verdienen.

Thanks. I did discover that I could use this technique instead (and have configured it this way). I still think suboptions on the Verbose G-code is a good idea since that's the first place I found.
