I'm designing a system that requires a flex to insert into a connector (Molex 5014610491).? The layout of this part of the flex is precisely specified in the documentation and, if I am going to draw it carefully and use it again in the future, it seems natural to make it a "footprint".
However, it doesn't seem like a natural fit... For example, the edge cut layer is not available in the footprint editor.
In KiCad 6 (nightly) the Edge Cut layer is available.
In KiCad 5 you could use the drawings layer to put down the outline and the Comments layer to explain that this should be aligned with the edge.
