I should clarify that I am creating my own profiles regardless, I am not using the standard Ultimaker Profiles. That said others in my organization are also using the profiles that I develop and as such it would be nice if the material selected in Cura could match the profile. For example, we print a lot with PTEG but the Generic PETG profile in Cura is disabled for the UM2+ so we pick CPE instead and use a custom profile named "PETG-0.4mm Nozzle-0.2mm Layers". It's less about using the specific material profiles and more about the user being able to pick the correct material in Cura for the custom profile I have created. Does that make sense?
All the materials "unlock" if I create a "Custom FFF printer" but then I loose the ability to pick nozzle size from a dropdown list.
