Remove Zero Weight bones: list option and/or only operate on bones with no children option. #172

As title. Basic gist, if you use this option as is, you may nuke your parent bones for things like skirts, ears, or breasts.

It would be nice to have a tickbox to prevent deletion of bones with children (if you're using it to remove extra leaf bones, or remove bones from clothing items or similar mesh removals) or just make a list of bones with zero weight for manual removal. Also a good idea for a feature for avatar toolkit.

Hey,

Sorry for the late reply on this one, this feature won't be added to Cats. We have decided unless the feature is a small add, no more features will be Added to cats. This is because we are working on Avatar Toolkit.

However this feature will be considered for Avatar Toolkit instead, I have added the tag for this and once the Core toolkit is done will transfer this issue over to it.

Thanks!

Sounds good. And, maybe another thing. have a toggle to either target only deform bones, or non-deform bones. And, similarly, mark parent's made with cat's util as being non-deform.
