Hi! Raspberry pi has support Per-Port Power Switching (PPPS)!
https://github.com/OutsourcedGuru/OctoPrint-USBControl
Can you add support PPPS? I think that it can placed in global settings.
Sometime my printer has error and i can not control without reboot the motherboard. I can control relay for 24 V powersuplay but the motherboard has power from USB.

    That is a bit too special for a general addition, but you can add it easily already.
    See Manual->Advanced Setup how to create/modify (our pi image one already) it. If your printer has slug xxx you just add to <command> the slug like <command slug="xxx"> and the command will appear in the printer context menu so it is assigned to your printer and you can call it.

    What I have put on my todo is adding the usb power tool for linux to the next image.
