Moving all of one type is one thing, but moving all/as much as possible of many types is another.
Something I'd like to see if possible is maybe a new button or shortcut that will check all the blocks/items in your inventory, and try to stack them with a different inventory, such as the chest.
An example would be to come back from a mining trip with a million different ores (like metallurgy stuff), and go to drop all the ores into the chest you store all your mining goodies in. The button/shortcut would try to take items from your inventory and stack them with what's already in the chest. (and maybe allowing a rule to also add a new stack if you try to deposit more than 64). Again, this would only count for blocks/items already inside the chest.
Currently the only way to do something remotely similar (that I am aware of) is to try and move entire inv (space+click), and then hit the sort button afterward, but this doesn't really cut it at all, since it would deposit other stuff as well. Defeats the purpose of this "issue"!
I hope I worded that alright, and hope it's possible/not too difficult to accomplish.
