The new Selector Combinator is great. Stack Size is great for automating calculations. Please consider adding instead of just stack size, Wagon Capacity.
Wagon Capacity would convert a signal into how much of that item would fit inside a Wagon or preferably some # of wagons. This would work for both fluid wagons and cargo wagons depending on if it stacks or is a fluid.
Why? This would be helpful for simplifying the calculations for loader/unloader stations. The conversion from stack size to wagon size is a constant x40 for items which is just another Arithmetic combinator. However, its more interesting when you think about fluids as well. Stack size is meaningless for fluids, but wagon capacity could support both fluids and items, then you wouldn't need two different loader/unloader stations for fluids and items.

Re: Selector Combinator Feature
I am not convinced about such feature, 1/ it would need a hardcoded cargo wagon stack size which in modded games may be different, 2/ it would add more options in the gui that is already quite occupied, 3/ it is solvable with arithmetic combinator.
