I agree. That is what I referred to as "rapid moves".
There would have to be a "guestimate rapids" slider as well.
My reasoning for wanting to be able to estimate cut times through Illustrator/Corel is to give better quotes. I quite often find myself giving quotes when I have my laptop but am not near my machine. With my script, I load their file, run the script, enter the speed at the prompt, and am returned the cut time. This gives me a good starting point.

I design, engineer and program all sorts of things.
Oh, and I use Adobe Illustrator with an Epilog Mini.
