One thing you could do is turning the big wheel by hand a bit before continuing. It's a bit hacky, but it works. You could also modify the plugin to cool down and heat up. But you would still have some oozing.
(And, it's not due to gravity, as it also happens if you have your printer upside-down)

First know that it's easy to edit this plugin and change the G commands that are inserted. So you could lower the temp if you wanted although if the temp is too low Marlin will disable the extruder motor. I think 180C might be the threshold - not sure.
Personally I only use this function to change filament so it takes me a while to remove the old filament and then insert the new filament. About the time I get the new filament locked down the Extruder axis unpowers and I can move the large extruder gear by hand. I prime quite a bit of filament until the color has changed and then I turn the wheel backwards by about 1/3 (the amount it turned backwards an instant before it paused - I watch it carefully and duplicate that amount).
Only after all that do I continue the print.
