In the inventory bags there are colored boxes around each item to show rarity of the item, this makes seeing rarity quick and easy. The suggestion is to add a small circle or square in the corner of each item to identify what group of items it is. Examples would be salvageable items would have a salvageable color(s) or icon in that circle or box. Weapons like great swords would have their own GS IDs like a GS icon or color(s). Same for armor weights, materials, consumables, mining tools, boosters, etc. A second ID mark could be put in another corner for a secondary grouping also if needed.
This should speed up inventory search and management considerably. There will be no need to mouse over each icon to identify what group of items they belong in and things can quickly and easily be move to their needed destination or usage.
Legendaries and precursors can more easily be identified too if they had general ID marks on them so that they don’t get mis-salvaged or any other mishaps.

A few ID marks could added at first and more could be added later if needed.

Would be a nice QoL feature.
