Just to add another +1 to this.

I'm currently designing a PCB, where toroid inductors are recessed into the PCB, and I've had to use the trick of making a polyline on another layer, then manually editing the pretty file to move it to the edge cuts layer.

In the past I've also had to manually add cuts under individual components on the PCB after the layout is complete, to provide extra electrical isolation e.g. under opto couplers and also some hall effect sensors, which have 440V on one side and 3.3V on the other.
