To avoid breaking tools.
I can do this by editing the Post file ... see other Topic. But it should be built in.

Hmmm. I thought I had this working, but no ... what I thought worked does not. So the question is still there.

Look in Motion in the post editor.
Look at Rapid Motion Block Format
What _was_ there in my case was
[G_CODE] [NEXT_X] [NEXT_Y]
[G_CODE] [NEXT_Z]
I changed this to
[G_CODE] [NEXT_Z]
[G_CODE] [NEXT_X] [NEXT_Y]
and that was it! The new code means "When you are doing rapids, move to the right Z first".
I still have the weirdness that the Post Editor doesn't show the file that is actually being used ...
