back when this function was available, it was easy to write code that would store a list of lp item identifier id's to be used in autocrafting setups that required custom management (infusion altar for example). now that the lp api is using ItemIdentifier objects...i dont see how you could create a list or store a table of these objects to disk (serialize/unserialize) without some way of going back and forth between an id and the object itself...would really help if we had access to that id and a method to makeRequest using that id instead of an object.

never mind. I r derp. just found the itembuilder object. ignore.
