I've discovered that no matter how many times I put my Blue Gemstones into the favorites tab, they keep going back to to the etc tab soon after.
The reason seems to be very simple - whether something has been moved to the tab or not is stored in the item itself. Once I use up the gemstones and refill them from a shop or storage, they are new gemstones so they server won't remember they were set to be in the favorites tab. This is a problem especially because I changed my storeall and gstoreall commands to not store favorites, and use those to clean my inventory from loot but even otherwise, the point of the favorites tab is to have the items you need to keep in your inventory at all time separated. Gems, potions, arrows, quivers, etc are definitely those kinds of items.
So I request a way to PERMANENTLY store an item on the favorites tab, even if it's consumable and gets used up. Normally I'd do it myself but I'm pretty sure this requires adding a new database field or table and storing the favorites there, and I have no idea whatsoever how to do that. Basically, if something that isn't an equipment is set to a favorite, the item ID+char ID pair should be stored in a separate database table, and restored from there whenever a new instance of the matching item is placed into the inventory. (In case of equipment, they won't ever leave your inventory in the first place, and they are unique pieces, so the existing system is perfect for them.)
I don't know how this works on official - so this might actually be a bug, or might not, but it's certainly a missing, critically useful feature even if not a bug.
