Manufacturing techniques vary between manufacturers and continuously

itself to what eurocircuits can do? They have optimized their process
for quick turn prototyping and
while they document their process nicely, they are probably not a
good reference for what can be done.

Before working on blind and buried vias dialog, please have a look

Currently there is no control in Kicad.
Sure, but it looks like there are some constraints on blind/buried
vias (microvias are blind/buried
vias) depending on board houses.
So it could be worth to be able to control these constraints inside
Kicad (at least to have a
minimal control).
We currently have a DRC which detects too small clearances and track
widths:
this is most of time due to manufacturing constraints which
continuously evolve.
I don't think I have enough understanding of the proposal to have an
opinion. I just want to caution against creating unnecessary
limitations in kicad. It really depends on the board house. I used to
work for one and there were quite a few atypical techniques used for
customer specific projects (many kept confidential to that customer).
