Wire printing is interesting to me. With translucent filament it makes interesting objects for things like retail displays of jewelry etc.
I wish there was an edible sugar based filament I could put through my Ultimaker. There would be some
badass dessert decorating in my future with wire printing.

Hello,
On my point of view a lot of existing parameters which are actualy in the "Experimental" section should be switch to the right section. After 3 or 4 releases, parameters in this section should be validate as regular options or removed if they are not really usefull.
This is the case for Tree Support options -> support
- Slicing Tolerance
- Tree Support Branch Angle
-Tree Support Branch distance etc .
Break Up support in shunk parameters -> support
Coasting parameters -> Shell
Adaptative layers parameters -> Shell
Bridge Settings -> Travel or Shell ?
Draft Shield parameters -> Cooling
Infill Travel Optimization -> Travel
Small Hole and Feature parameters -> Speed
And we could reasonabily ask if it's usefull to keep the spaghetti Infill options and Wire printing ? does any one using this functions ?

Tree support is moved to the support section for the next release.
The other experimental settings are there for a reason: We know significant issues with (most of) them. For instance the Adaptive Layers feature messes up all of the Z distances because CuraEngine normally calculates Z distances by counting layers. So the Support Z Distance is too small or too large, skin is too thick or too thin, etc.
Those two settings you mention, Spaghetti Infill and Wire Printing, are actually also the two features that I proposed to delete recently, to reduce maintenance burden and confusion of the user. Spaghetti Infill has now been deleted for the 4.7 release upcoming. Wire printing not (yet).
