Prevent 'Orphaning' of Items from Piles

[Gwyn 328]

When moving multiple items from a pile into containers, if the container has room for all but one or two items, the pile will dematerialize, automatically closing the pile window and orphaning the remaining items which then have to be manually picked up and moved from character inventory into the next empty container. This is annoying.

 

Possible solution: Maintain the existence of the pile as long as the pile window is open on the client, even if it is reduced to only 1 or 2 items. Only when player closes pile window allow decomposition of one- or two-item piles into individual, non-stacked items.

In addition to this, may I suggest that when dropping  several items close to a tile border, have all the items pick a tile and form a single pile rather than split up. This often happens to logs when chopping them sometimes leaving a single log on one tile while the rest end up on another.
