Summary: rapid feed override

Initial Comment:
One of the only features EMC is missing when compared to standard industrial 
controls is a Rapid Feedrate override.   The idea would be to slow just the G0 
moves for proofing out programs while leaving regular feedrates unchanged.  
Typically machines will have a number of options like  100% 50% 25% and then 
one that is  very slow.   5% or so.   

It would be nice to be able to change these feeds independent of the programmed 
g1, g2 and g3 feedrates so you would not change the parts finish.

Thanks

Message:
The maximum velocity function does look promising....

Is there any way that the maximum velocity could be set up to only change
G0 movements?  I occasionally run in to a situations where I would actually
like the rapid moves to be slower than the feedrate of the G1,G2,G3 moves. 


Additionally, it seems like modifying the both rapid and cutting feedrates
could also cause trouble on a lathe when feedrate is programed in inches
per revolution.  What would happen if maximum velocity was less than the
speed a machine would have to be traveling at to maintain the programmed
feedrate/ rpm?  Something would have to give.

Message:
The existing "maximum velocity" feature is very useful for proofing
programs.  Aside from the on-screen slider and keyboard shortcuts, it can
be controlled via wheel through halui, and can be changed to any value down
to zero, anytime during or between moves.  I find this very powerful and
use it extensively for unproven programs on my machine that has very fast
rapids.
