Refillable Parts Area

[2:36 AM]
lizzie: Matt and I were talking about having a special subset of
 the parts shelves be specific parts that we re-order when they're
 running low and can donate to when we use.

What do you all think?

Right now I'm thinking:
+ Lots of potentiometers with the same footprints
+ Lots of switches with predictable footprints
+ Common caps and resistors
+ Common ics (beyond 555 timers)
  - Op-amps
  - 74xx series logic (inverters, MUXes, etc)
  - General purpose BJTs & MOSFETS in both P- and N-doped flavors
+ Nice connectors, jacks, plugs, header pins, etc (edited)

The parts section is great but it can be really annoying to design boards, 
since we don't have parts numbers for many parts, and the footprints are 
unpredictable.

Being able to reorder the entire special stock would be cool. (edited)

swedishhat @lizzie Maybe add some 1N400x series diodes as well?
