Hovering over an item in the crafting panel should highlight the item in your logistics requests area too

TLDR:
Hovering over an item in the crafting panel should highlight the item in your logistics requests area too

What?
Currently when you hover your cursor over an item in the crafting panel, if you have any of that item in your inventory, then it will highlight and flash that item so you can find it in your giant inventory more easily. I want the same functionality in my logistics requests panel: if you have a filter with that item, then that filter slot(s) (for different sections) should highlight too.

Why?
Because I have a LOT of requests, often need to adjust them, and rarely remember where a given item is. That means I have to click an empty slot, hover over the item in THAT menu, and read the tooltip that says "conflicts with filter in slot X" before I can find where my item's request is. It would be much faster and easier to simply add the same functionality here too.

Also you have a typo in the suggestions template post: "Pictures are more worth than words." should be "worth more"
