I would like to suggest a button on the inventory interface that would permit everyone to downgrade the quality of any article to q:0.
I believe the article should retain it's original cost, since that represents the correct expense of aquiring the item,
however you aquired it - whether through production or market/contract purchase.
It would permit the conversion of many small (and other wise useless) quantities of variable quality items to a single quality which would simplify storage of such items to a single inventory slot.
Suggestion for quality conversion
