Time Estimate for Each Layer

Is your feature request related to a problem?

I recently had a print fail due to what appeared to be too short layer times causing heat buildup and slumping (part was in ABS with almost no fan). Diagnosing the print failure led me to want to check the time for each layer, but that information was not available in Cura. On this particular part, the cross-section was relatively constant, so I could get a good estimate by simply dividing total time by the number of layers; but on parts with large variations in cross-section, that technique would not work.

Describe the solution you'd like

I would like the preview window to show the estimated time for the layer that the slider is on (the currently displayed layer). A logical location would be near the scrubbing bar at the bottom of the screen (where the play/pause button is). The bar could be labeled 0s at the beginning of the bar and have the total time for the layer on the right side of the bar. An idea implementation would show the time to the position of the scrubbing control as well, much the way the scrubbing controls work on a video player or editor.

Describe alternatives you've considered

On the particular part that raised this concern for me, the cross-section was relatively constant, so I could get a good estimate by simply dividing total time by the number of layers; but on parts with large variations in cross-section, that technique would not work.

Affected users and/or printers

This will provide valuable information for anyone printing small parts who is concerned with the minimum layer time and related functions. It would allow tuning of print speed, fan speed, and other parameters based on the time for each layer.
