Suggestion: Confirmation boxes before export
I think that it would be helpful, especially for beginners, to have confirmation boxes for export.
[ ] you have X filament selected. Is this correct?
[ ] you have Xmm nozzle selected. Is this correct?
[ ] you have vase mode selected from a previous print. Is this what you want?
I would be nice if they were optional (so users who never change nozzles would never turn on that confirmation dialog), and users who always use the same filament could turn that one off.
Even after a year and a half, I frequently find myself walking to the printer with the SD card in my hand and, "Ah, dang! Wrong filament profile...." Sometimes I realize it AFTER the printer has started putting down plastic.
Suggestions
If you want to suggest a change to the firmware, github is the right place. DEVs may not see this post becaue they are developing.

Summary page is a good idea

I'm generally not a fan of user-proofing features, but a summary confirmation box before saving gcode or sending it to the printer via OctoPrint or other means would be helpful. I've occasionally reloaded a 3MF project file and not caught the fact that I'd since mounted a new nozzle. This would be a useful suggestion on the PrusaSlicer github pages (if that's what you meant). I'd be in favor of this addition, along with a "don't remind me" option.
