[Feature Request] Better automation

[llloyd4]

As a suggestion, perhaps more items to allow for better automation. For example, a Valve that also detects quality as well. Or if DR detects Ender IO it adds a few blocks such as conduit that is enwrapped in Dense Obsidian, so that one can pass conduits (energy or item (for crystal swapping) ) though the dense obsidian chamber wall with out leaving gaping holes that leak radiation all over creation. It might leak a little radiation but no where near as much as a missing block to let the conduits though. Same with Refined Storage and AE2 cables. A block to detect the four attributes and output a redstone signal to allow for laser automation. Let the Pedestal and the Purifier treat the Import buses (Refined Storage Importers too) as external storage and toss their output into them. Etc, etc, etc, and so on and so forth... :D

Some of these things can actually be done with RFTools Control. It has opcodes to read out liquid stats and laser stuff so that you can automate that more easily

Cool! Still need all the rest, especially a way to run conduit though dense obsidian walls with out opening holes, neatening up the purifiers and the pillar, etc. :D Currently, need to play with it a bit, leaving the pillar in the wall until I can figure out how to get item conduits to behave at least as far as pulling the empty crystal from the chest and putting a new crystal into the pillar directly since the pillar can't pull a new crystal from the adjacent chest but it doesn't treat the conduit as a valid inventory so I have to have the chest to catch empty crystals to be put into the laser as catalyst.

@llloyd4 One alternative is to use item translocators, ender chests, or phantomfaces.
