Suggestion for item names in Logistical Sorter

I'm not sure if this could be posted in another place, but I think it would be a neat feature to have name sorting in the Logistical Sorter, as the title suggests. The Ore Dictionary filter works for most items, and the wildcard makes it that much better, but some items aren't in the Ore Dictionary, but can be filtered by parts of their names (for example, seeds). I'd find this really useful in cases of item sorting on large scales without adding a new filter for each different type of seeds item. Wildcard asterisks would play a big part in it, and would be used in an input as '* Seeds', which gets the name of the item stack and if it contains 'Seeds' then it'll send it to the colour it's assigned to, and so forth for other filter terms.
I won't mind too much if this isn't added, but it's worth a shot.
Oh, that's okay. Your explanation makes a lot of sense and I can understand why you'd want to keep things the way you're keeping them. I'll just work with what I have in that case. Thanks for the reply :)
Thanks for the suggestion!
I think I'm going to just maintain the OreDictionary filters - the reason I haven't added this in yet is I feel that being able to type in the name of any block you want to replace would kind of take away from the fun of the different filters - the OreDictionary filters are great for dealing with wide varieties of blocks, but when you want to get specific, you need to have the type of block on hand. Hope you understand!
