Bevel Modifier centered "Mark Seams/Sharps"

Hello, I'd like to propose an improvement to the bevel modifier "Mark seams/sharps" options. Currently, when you apply the modifier with seams on the mesh, seams get spread on both part of the bevel. And option to mark the seams on the center line would be really nice.

Good idea. It's always annoying to fix seams after bevel. But now the question is how to choise side in such cases? Which one have to become seam and how to keep seams continuous and without breaks for such cases with too complex mesh with multi connects.

* @IIIFGIII * I personally wouldn't use this feature, but solving that issue is pretty easy- I'd weight it based on face area of the pre-beveled geometry. bigger side gets the extra bevel face. If they're identical it doesn't matter, flip a coin.

* @IIIFGIII * That's why i almost always use an even number of bevel edges :D
