Craft Only feature for Exporters

Can we have a option in exporters (when a crafting upgrade is installed) to only export crafted items instead of items in stock?

commented

I'm going to necro this feature request and ask for a craft-only upgrade to the exporter. There is no good way of keeping an object that you have to craft stocked.

commented

Why do you need this?

commented

I know I've needed that functionality in the past. I was feeding crafting tables to a hungry node, and had to enable that because it kept stealing crafting tables I was making for other recipes. It's useful, sometimes. There are other examples, but that one comes to mind.

The reason @RealGrep mentioned, as well as it is a nice way to keep a certain amount of items stocked in the system. Detector facing an exporter set to active on redstone signal (the items loop without the craft-only feature) is a way to keep X amount of items stocked in the system. Is there another way that I've missed?

It's mostly the stocking thing though, I don't want to have to wait for my system to craft 20 processors when I want to craft some blocks or I don't want to have to tell my system to craft some chests for the hundredth time.
