auto_drop_chunks feedback

[XuaXua]

NEW IN TRUNK:A new option: auto_drop_chunks.
Chunks are dropped only when picking something up would put you over the burden limit. There are two modes: partial one ("rotten") which will drop only rotten ones (none at all if you're a saprovore or know Simulacrum/ Sublimation), and full which will drop any chunks that are going to be of no use. It tries to be smart about chunk quality: contam chunks are worse than clean ones unless they're far fresher, modified by gourmand, mutations, etc.
There's a lot that can be improved: for example, it doesn't care what you're trying to pick up (new chunks should be counted); if you chop up an elephant into 8 chunks it will still try to pick them up _and_ keep an "appropriate" amount of old ones, etc. Which is crippling if your carrying capacity is 200aum in the first place.

I have wanted this option FOREVER.

Question: Does it auto-drop if you have any chunk-related spells memorized (Simulacrum or that necromancy one that restores MP whose name I can't recall) because I am not certain it should in those instances (sort of like availability of training Shields and availability of the Condensation Shield).

The answer is, uh, how to put it, in the text you posted.

What about poisonous chunks - e.g. if you have an rPois ring you can swap in, or Ice Form.

Semi-related question: is there any way to limit the amount of chunks you pick up in the first place? My current character has an artifact melee weapon with a strength bonus, and a crossbow. It's kind of annoying burdening myself every time I switch weapons because the game figures I might as well grab all 5 chunks. I don't use necromancy either, so I figure 2 chunks should be fine in most cases.
