That's just silly :-)

Makes your printer wireless, and a plug-in provided with Cura replaces
the "save to file" button with a "print with octoprint" button.

Octoprint is fully open-source and has a very active community. Lots
of interesting plug-ins exist for Octoprint too. (like skipping a
failed part in a multi-part build, which it does purely by inspection
of the G-code)

Octoprint also lets you watch your prints with a webcam (I think you
can even view this  directly in Cura)
