I know there have been similar threads addressing the complaint regarding retrieving items from your Dropped Pack, but I'm pretty sure this is a new suggestion:

Would it be a good idea to add to the Dropped Pack's OnOpen script so the owner is automatically assigned the command ActionTakeItem() for all of the items in their Dropped Pack? There already is an OnOpen script that can identify the owner, as it says * (Your name here)'s Pack * so this would be adding to the usefulness of that stored name.
