Bug Description

I believe feature requests go here, under bug reports. If not, my apologies, please feel free to
delete.

I've recently come to KiCad from Eagle, and I find myself missing a useful feature - the ability to have a board manufacturer provide a CAM file that can be imported by the software to automatically set the the Gerber generation settings as appropriate to that manufacturer. A number of PCB manufacturers provide these files for Eagle and other programs - OSHPark, SeedStudio, etc.

As far as I can tell there's no such capability in KiCad. I would love to see it added in a future version.
