Alternating perimeter layers (hexagonal walls)

Left side of image is standard layering (cut in x-z plane). Right one is newly proposed one. Outside wall/shell/perimeter (first column from the right) keeps the same layers but even columns are shifted by half of layer in z dimension. Each string is touching others in 6 spots (hexagon) instead of 4 in the standard one. This will provide higher strength of the printed piece. Can you add this to the slic3r? Thanks. ![alternating layers](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/46957311/52811332-1f9aa680-3095-11e9-9a2d-2fff45881dd9.png)
