[Feature Request] option for shaped mining to mine all mineable blocks of all types, but shapeless mining to only break same type as crosshairs point at #88

When using OE to mine tunnels or staircases it's very frustrating for the mining shape to be stopped by random ores or gravel, etc. Is it possible to make it so that shaped mining will break all blocks your current tool is capable of breaking, while shapeless mining only breaks blocks of the same type you're looking at?

You can already do this using block grouping rules (stone, granite, andesite, and slate are grouped by default) but there is one big caveat to that. Block grouping is enforced server side as it can be abused/exploited depending what a player sets it to as it isn't just mining OE applies to (ever seen OE configured with an RF group that can grief an entire building's machine network and drop it outside at your feet?).
