Feature Description
Currently, if I place an item in an input bus, hatch, etc. with automation it is impossible to remove that item unless I do so manually. While this generally isn't an issue, there are some niche applications where it would be nice to be able to remove items (for example, using an IO port to remove an item from an input bus that's attached to a storage bus).
As mentioned before this enables some niche functionality that can lead to some really cool emergent behaviors. But even ignoring that, it feels frustrating as a player to be unable to remove items in this way. To be clear, I don't mean that players should be able to remove items from the input slots of machines; this is specifically targeted to the input busses / hatches and output busses / hatches. This wouldn't really be a new feature to GregTech either, as older versions of the mod allow this functionality (ie the gregtech version in GTNH). You can look to GTNH to see some of the cool things this enables.
