For instance, if I accidentally click "Trash unrequested", all items move into a spidertron's logistic trash, and if I uncheck the box, there is no way to move items back to its inventory, except by moving the spidertron into a logistic zone and re-requesting the items, or by moving the player character to the spidertron so that you can manually move the items

I'll vote +1 to this. I had a gleba power outage and wanted to rebuild things without traveling there. Spidertron had the parts in trash but couldn't build ghosts.

I also had a situation where I wanted to move a capture rocket from a spidertron's inventory to its weapon slots, but had to wait for a logistics bot to come do it. It'd be nice if you could do that in a single step from the remote view.

What’s a shame is that even construction bots can’t use the items from the trash slots for construction. I was trying to to upgrade the quality of some walls but didn’t have enough rare. Since bots didn’t upgrade the most important parts of the wall, I wanted to change which walls were upgraded, but my uncommon walls were now in the trash slots so I wasn’t able to place them back…
