I have, but my objective wasn't to do isolation milling of traces, but
rather outline milling to separate individual board images from a
panel.  Frankly, it didn't go well.  I ended up semi-manually extracting
enough hole locations to be able to drill and tap a fixture for holding
the panels, then hand-crafted g-code to rip the rectangular boards out
of the panels.
