Incorporate Z zero below material option in general "cnc milling" file #6

I think this idea came from when Pivot was milling at Bitraf. They had created toolpaths in advance so couldn't check in the grasshopper file for the deepest Z point without having to calculate the full 3D milling job. I think this shouldn't be too hard to incorporate as an hidden comment at the beginning of the shopbot file? Maybe there's some other useful stuff to put in there?
