I have been using Kisslicer lately and have notice that reduces the feedrate at the end of the external perimeter. A great thing I think, there is a way to do in Slic3r, Cura or Simplify3D?

Coast is also a great thing, but not the same. I use it with simplify3D, works well but some materials print better with the slowing trick.

Both coast-to-end and slowing down at the end of a line are poor substitutes for properly-implemented pressure advance.
