Feature suggestion: "Decompose corner" instance parameter

Sometimes Filter parameter would perform strange upon Smart Corners, for example, Offset Curve would make the starting and ending nodes of a corner segment away from the Origin:

It would be better if they can be decomposed with a custom parameter and then offset.

I don’t understand?

Say, I have a glyph like A, with the Smart Corner B, and the final shape is C.

I added an instance with the filter parameter Offset Curve. Both the base shape (D) and the corner component (E) has been offset. The instance now looks like F.

I suppose I can add a custom parameter Decompose Corner, similar to Decompose Components, so that the offset filter could work on C as a whole, creating the final result like G.

Or add an ignore:_corner setting to the offset curve filter.

Thank you, it worked.

It seems to be exclude:_corner.XXX?

Does it support wildcards or Regex?

you can do _corner.*
