Could there be a possibility of either getting enhanced keep lists, with
multiple lists you can make, keep1, keep2 etc. or make this an ability to be
purchased.

Having seen and worked with the "keep" code, I can say the answer is "yes, but
you wouldn't want to". I can say with almost 100% certainity that the very day
this becomes available, someone will mishandle it and donate all their eq to
Damogran. Even besides that, any attempt to activate multiple keeplists at
once would almost certainly cause overlap errors.
Offhand, I don't know a good reason why you'd want to do this. My experience
with keep was pretty much "unchest, keep all" and then "keep clear, chest".
Anything else got me in trouble. I can probably make this, but I need a good,
compelling reason to do so.

Yes, well the main point was to easy up sorting thins into chests, if you
could have keep for different eqsets, keep wis, keep offu etc, or create an
unique keeplist for certain items in your inventory, so you dont need to keep
clear all and then fumble around wearing eqsets to put em back to keep and
then dropping lots of stuff to have only the few items you want from a bunch
to keep, then again pick up rest of the junk. In my point of view there would
be alot of uses for such a thing.

Or just have commands to put your stuff in chests, or just use alias.

bit of an issue with this in that it's fairly common for an eqset to be bigger
than a chest size. Perhaps we would do 'eqset bind breastplate into chest 1'
or such, then do a chest command? Not really sure what a usable interface for
that would be, but whatever it is would be damn awesome. Oh, and one other
option would be 'eqset chest cast chests a1 a2 a3 a4' and it just checks for
free slots, and puts eq in those chests as available.
