"Second-level" Provider Chest

To distribute Items accross a longer distance, I have setup a train-line (filled by Requestor-Chests),
which throws the items into Provider-Chests at various stations. (In order to be picked up by local drones)

This works fine, as long as the supply is higher than the demand, or Source / Destination are not connected with the same
Logistic-Network (Drones)

If the Demand is higher than the suplly, and/or there is a Logistic-Connection, drones are starting to bring back items from the
"Destination-Provider-Chest" to the "Source-Requestor-Chest".

So, another kind of "Provider-Chests" would be nice. One that just feeds Factory & Construction-Demands, but not queries from
other Requestor-Chests.

cheers,
dognose
