Reconfigurable inserters

My idea is, that inserters would have reconfigurable inputs and outputs. In other words, the inserters would have a GUI, wich is used to set in- an outputs within a 3x3 grid, with the inserter in the center (5x5 for long-handled)

There is a mod for that.

And in all honesty, custom inserters would detract from the game, in my opinion. A big part of what makes this game feel like an awesome dynamic puzzle is that you have to construct your factories out of a number of simple, fundamentally limited tools.

This is a nice quote. Must be underlined. What I did now. :)
