I've run into a problem that I can't seem to automate: viewtopic.php?t=130068.
What happens, is when items get delivered to a requester chest that are not at 100% health, they can be picked up by inserters, but can't be inserted into the assembler, so they have to be manually removed. I don't think there's a mechanism to automate it to prevent this from happening. I don't think that it ever makes sense to deliver an item to a requester (blue) chest that is not at 100% health. I think that anything not at 100% health should be excluded from being delivered to requester chests.

From what I understand, that happens now, but if it doesn't happen fast enough, you can still end up with these items gumming up the works.
Even if it doesn't happen already (I don't know how to test this), I think that not delivering damaged items to blue chests is probably much more straightforward both for Wube to implement, and easier for users to understand.
