Laser cutting holes

Laser cutting holes

When we laser cut parts that have tapped holes, We sometimes have to have these holes cut at different sizes.

 

ie, When we have a M12 tapped hole, We laser cut it Dia 9, drill Dia 10.25 then tap M12. It would be great is this could be incorporated into the hole feature with a "Laser Cutting Hole Dia". something like an option for drilling process, "Drill" or "Cut and Drill". Bonus would be to have the option to also create a centre etch for smaller hole because M6 holes we etch the centre mark then drill and tap  

 

Currently we have to manually change the Flat pattern to show the smaller hole.

Kinda related, but I would like to have an option to select the hole piercing process, Drilled, Bored, Plasma Cut, Laser Cut, WaterJet...

 

And for that process to show up in the hole annotations inside drawings
