Is there an existing issue for this feature request?

I have searched the existing issues

As heated chambers and more advanced filaments are becoming common place, an in slicer warm down feature is becoming more desirable.

Which printers will be beneficial to this feature?

All

Describe the solution you'd like

It should be a user configurable post print cooling cycle section in the "Other" tab that could be changed or saved for a particular project rather than by filament or in machine end gcode.

The variable's should be something like:
warm down length (time)
warm down rate (linear, logarithmic, exponential, stepped, etc)
warm down end temp (end of cycle)
warm down tool (chamber, heat bed)

Then a line is interpolated between print temps to warm down end temp based on inputs.

Describe alternatives you've considered

It might be nice to have a separate warm down functions for each tool, where say the chamber temp can be held until bed and chamber have matching temps then warm down on both from there. This could be a check box labeled "wait for heat bed".

It might also be more efficacious to make a warm down temp hold time (length of time temp is held once reached before next step), rather than defining the entire length of the warm down time, since complete time for warm down will not be constant across machines.

Additional context

This can be crudely done from machine end gcode right now, but I find the other tab of print options the most Ideal. This is because a particular print might require more or less warm down than another even with the same filament.
