TL;DR
Let us add parameters to filters on inserters in blueprints

What?
Let us add parameters to filters on inserters in blueprints

Why?
My train schedules are "if cargo > 0, go to cargo dropoff point and wait till inactivity or empty or 240 seconds". This allows me to deliver mixed goods, for example if my spaceships are dropping off dozens of different items and I don't want dozens of different stations to pick up each good. But to do this requires the cargo dropoff point to have the filter inserters set to only take out that specific product, otherwise belts are contaminated. If we could parameterize the filters along with the stations that'd be very helpful.
