The ability to declare multiple things for one wanted list line item, essentially.

For instance, I want Part A in Colors B, C, or D provided they can meet my desired
quantity, or price if I set one.
This would generate a random best price mix of the 3 colors in the 1 part specified.


It would likely be helpful too in the case where multiple colors were an option
if you could somehow specify whether you wanted to buy them as a mix of the colors
or only the cheapest color from the options. I want Part A in Colors B, C, and
D. I want Part A in Colors B, C, or D. And vs. Or

If this were applied to my Part as well then I could buy Part A, B, C in colors
D, E, F as one line item with a combined quantity and max price restriction if
set.
This would generate a random best price mix of the 3 parts in the 3 colors specified.

The logistics of making wanted lists handle multiple items and colors is likely
not worth it.
But, it seems like it wouldn't be too hard to make them handle multiple colors
per item.

I think with the new Auto Find buying tool this would be quite helpful and could
be very interesting to play with
