Add a value for segments in bevel modifier
In the bevel modifier with the "Bevel weight", we chan change the size of the width. It would be nice to have the same possibility for segments. Like that we couls have differents bevels with only one modifier ! Just add a slider value under the Mean Bevel Weight.

I like it but it is so weird to have one more specific edge value for such a specific case, would love to see a remodel of this system as a kind of edge groups that can be applied in that, and many more ways. Maybe another quick hack for that problem is to have the number of segments be dependent of the distance, makes sense?
So in your example, the top loop would have a Mean Bevel Weight of lets say .2 and the bottom one would have a MBW of 1, and there would be a "Segment density" value on the bevel modifier that would add more or less segments to the bevel depending on the MBW of each edge (I know it could become messy with continuos edges with different MBW, but would work in many c ases)
With 2 bevels and Limit Method = 2 Vertex Group you can get the same results
For a final object yes, but not for an object with booleans, the vertex groups are removed when you apply the boolean or edit the object. This proposal is much better and simpler.
