Add a search to any entity with logistic requests or circuit signals, e.g. constant combinators

What:
In a constant combinator with lots of logistic requests, there's no UI assistance to help me find a particular request. In my personal logistics, there is, via the Search field in the top right. I want such a Search field or button in all cases where there might be (lots of) things to search ...

Re: 0.18.17 odd behavior with tech tree and game being paused

To reiterate part of the weird behavior: Open Tech tree -> press Pause button -> press ESC, which you would expect to open the menu or to leave the tech tree. Instead the menu is rendered in the background of the tech tree, in a non-interactible way: https://i.imgur.com/zeLCgZj.jpeg

I can see that ...

Re: [2.0.77] Ghost pipette sometimes picks up wrong icon, for e.g. acid neutralisation

Fair enough. I will note, though, that this current behavior is annoying specifically in the scenario of trying to add recipe icons to blueprint icons, titles, or descriptions. E.g. I probably noticed this behavior while trying to make an acid neutralisation blueprint.

Blueprint: allow ghost pipette & Factoripedia on preview entities

TL;DR: Allow using the ghost pipette & Factoripedia on entities in the blueprint preview panel.

Context: I can hover items in the blueprint preview and even deactivate them via right-click, but I currently cannot use the pipette tool or open the Factoripedia for it.

Feature request: let me use the ...

UI: Make parametrized blueprints tileable somehow

Feature request: make parametrized blueprints tileable somehow.

Current behavior: Parametrized blueprints currently cannot be tiled because the popup which asks for entering the parameters interrupts the tiling movement.

Re: Allow belts to output the count of the belts attached that are in read-hold-all-belts

+1, something like "Read belt length" would be great for e.g. sushi belts on space platforms, so you could make circuit designs that say things like "put ammo onto this belt up to 30% of its total belt capacity". Currently I have to count belt length manually, which is fine for static designs but ...

Add alerts for frozen entities on Aquilo

TL;DR
Frozen entities currently do not have an Alert like e.g. entities missing material for construction do. Consider adding such an alert.

Why?
Example use case: In Aquilo map view, I currently cannot tell at all when half my factory has frozen over.

And from a more philosophical perspective ...

[2.0.77] Tech list sorts triggered technologies unintuitively, e.g. before their dependencies

Context: Technologies in the technology list are roughly sorted by dependency. Either explicitly, or implicitly because different research pack costs are bundled together.

Bug / unintuitive behavior: Some triggered technologies (i.e. ones that don't require science packs to unlock) are sorted ...

[2.0.77] Factoripedia contains no entries for fluid barrels

Expected behavior: Factoripedia contains entries for pretty much all Factorio entities.

Bug: Factoripedia contains no entries for fluid barrels, e.g. water barrel.

Reproducibility: This always happens, consistently.
