This doesn't solve your issue but can't you at least merge the gcode files so you only have to start the entire process once?
What I would like to see is a far more advanced solution where you could for example machine features which will be inaccessible once the print is finish.
Right now the tools for none industrial machines are basic as it feels like you are feeding a slicer output to a CAM package but the slicer isn't designed with this in mind (e.g. printing certain features that will be machined lightly larger and everything else at normal size).
this was gonna be my thought. writing a python script to append one file to another is pretty easy
