"Logistic Connections" for requester chests?

[imi___]

The feature, that inserters can directly connect to the logistic network they are in without requiring any cable is really cool. I wish this would be available for requester chests and buffer chests as well, especially to disable them if certain items are below certain numbers.

Here an example where I want to keep some spoilage for crafting and other uses.

In the base game, this wasn't a big deal, as you could just have the logistic connection on the inserter taking stuff out of the requester chest. In Space Age, on Gleba, there is spoiling, so you often want to not request things at all instead of rotting in the requester chest...


It would allow for small copy-pasteable blueprints that "just work" without the need to find a nearby roboports or to include an roboport into each blueprint.
