Exquisite!

say I set 200 iron plates, then from the inside inventory (ME, like in Minecraft Refined Storage or Applied Energistics) it tries to fill it up to 200, but I can pipe in more with a loader, and it won't gets into ME till it's 200 again. Meanwhile other random stuff go in.
I will scour your mod settings.

so with logistics network I can read how much is in there and close off the ME feeder belt

Will do.
a) I ran into a problem: wanted to make a little factorio house for iron smelting.
So the input would be beside the smelters set to 50 pure iron chunk/248K (I love your round robin, no one left empty idea), and empty-set chests would get the plate output to ME.
So I've bought some pure iron on medium-stellar price, and couldn't put them into ME via an unset chest.
I've piped in some random junk before, which I've recovered from unsucessful precursor ruins, or vacuumed up the creep of nuked bases of zergs (that sells a good price, that's how I can afford the tech-cards for research).
Then I couldn't even get some of it out, like 3 fast inserter or 8 red belts any way.
--update--
I had 3 inserters in ME - it wont get out any for 60, but for 1 they appeared each.
Is the maximum items means all the individual items or per type?
I'm sure I'm missing something, can you help me out or point me to the wiki/faq? I'll check the pictures here...
b) What do you think about infinite barrels, like 10000000 of the set type of item (fish), system prefers to use that instead of the general storage.
Storage expanders for general items.
Dedicated ME-transfer chest input/output tries to fill/empty only the filtered items in/out ME.
Quantum inserters: put the needed item into a machine, like an assembler from a chest with everything in ME.
Making "no fluid transfer" a feature, vanilla has barrels, mods has their own containers.
Research. :D
Thank you again, and good night.
