Slippage adjustment for trade window

I have longed for a use-case with Attached orders: need to move the SL a fixed number ticks RELATIVE to alert bar trigger to honor original SL (i.e. relative to CROSSFROMBELOW alert time price). This is an absolute price level adjustment (move SL to #.##)
Maybe the trade window could note the best bid/best offer at order initiation, and thereby "guestimate" slippage, and attempt adjusting the SL after entry [this would be a generic and much-appreciated fix with many use-cases]. Possible "M" menu options: [x] adjust SL post-entry for slippage; [x] adjust TP post-entry for slippage.

Could be a good time to add this considering this other Moving stop and take profit after running Send Attached Orders thread: Moving stop and take profit after running Send Attached Orders

Just trying to avoid the tedious move to ACSIL studies. It seems there should be a way to simply move a SL post-entry (market entries are made for this use-case as slippage always happens).
