Feature Request: not carving object option

I was working on a simple piece that connects a rod to a pen and I thought it would be nice to draw in the external objects (rod and pen) into the drawing for illustrative purpose.

At first I was thinking a tool that just doesn’t get sent to the gcode parser, but maybe setting depth to zero (which is what I do now) would be acceptable if maybe the color of zero’d objects be set a pale blue (for example) so they show in the workspace. (Finding the white objects can be a pain)

Workaround, place the zero depth objects on Y-negative side (which provide contrast to the white, zero depth objects)

But I agree, zero depth objects should be assigned a different color in editor, maybe red?
Cut depth zero => red
Cut depth < zero => Grey scale as-is
