The ability to craft using items from the logistics system

[SolarPolarMan]

This would add the ability to craft items even when you don't have the ingredients on you. It would automatically request the needed items instead of you having to manually add them to your logistics panel and then cancel them once you get them. I think that it would be a good addition since this game is about automating but sometimes I only need 10 of something that I rarely need so, the ingredients are in storage and I'm lazy. There could be an item in the research tree to under "Logistic system" unlock the ability.

TL;DR - Crafting with items in storage using logistics bots.

I give you a yes

Always having 100 iron, 100 copper, 100 steel, 100 green/red circuits in logistic request solves the problem as well. The only case when you need something more is I think crafting a locomotive (20 engine units). But hey, factorio is about automation of all things you want to craft by hand. Esp. with logistic network when setting up such production is just an assembly machine, one requester and one provider chest.

Having said that, I've just set up production of locomotives, wagons, cars and tanks. 4 assembly machines around a single requester chest. It took me like 1 minute in total. Plus one production for water pumps. Now I guess I need crafting no more.
