Marlin RC8 BLTouch and #define min_software_endstops false

Hello,
I'm just testing my BLTouch probe and it works really nice. The only issue I have is when I'm manually controlling X and Y axis it happens that the carriage crashes to min side. It depends on my fault but before installing BLTouch I could setup #define min_software_endstops true // If true, axis won't move to coordinates less than HOME_POS and it didn't happen. For exact installation and a working probe I have to setup #define min_software_endstops false and now it can happen to go less than 0 on X and Y. It would be nice to get an additional switch for that when habĀ“ving the BLTouch. Did anyone here also work on this issue?

Thanks Klaus

PS:
this is my suggestion:

#define min_software_endstop_Z true / false
#define min_software_endstop_X true / false
#define min_software_endstop_Y true / false
#define max_software_endstop_Z true / false
#define max_software_endstop_X true / false
#define max_software_endstop_Y true / false
