Is there a way to customize the list of Bed Types?

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

I have multiple "textured" beds that all have differing thicknesses and would need different Z-offsets associated.
This would allow you to create a custom list that more accurately reflects user's reality. Also that list should be associated to the printer, as you may have only two beds for one printer, but 10 for another.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Just being able to rewrite the names in the current list of bed types would be a good start.
Being able to input a Z-offset per bed in the temp table would be perfect.
BONUS for being able to select the image resource displayed.

I assume this list would become part of the custom printer profile data, unlike the temperatures.
