G72 facing cycle with incremental move

Using a canned facing cycle, try an incremental move on the last line of the contour...
G0 X2. Z1.;
G72 W.1 R.05;
G72 P10 Q20 U0. W.01 F.01;
N10 G0 Z0.;
G1 X0.;
N20 G1 "W.05"; (feeds out .050 incrementally rather than all the way back to start point Z1., saving cycle time)
