As far as I know, the only way to ask for construction robots to take items from, say a wooden chest is to order its deconstruction.
Can we add a way to order construction robots to take items from an entity (like they do when its deconstructed) with the ability to specify which items to take and in which quantity?
This could be implemented by allowing negative value count in the item_requests property of an item-request-proxy (or with a new dedicated entity like item-pickup-proxy)

Re: Removal item requests
Adding support for such a thing would mean adding a new behavior to robots - which is a large amount of work to support and bug fix.
It might happen some day but is not likely to happen soon.
