When handling pieces of material, you may now (well, soon enough) use the
following handles:
-- "raw <material>" or "refined <material>" depending on its refinement, and
-- the type of material (metal, bone, wood, etc)
SO things like "put all metal in forge" will work. Please note that bronze,
steel, and the like are type "alloy" NOT "metal" and should be handled
accordingly.
