Reverse belt direction.

After placing a belt and items are on it, If you change a sorter or want to move items which have already been put into a storage container you have several issues.
1. All items on the belt are dropped to the ground.
2. All items already in storage will be dropped if you change the stored item.
3. If you need to add another machine which requires the same input in a line you have to change the layout, causing point 1 to happen.
I would like to be able to just reverse the direction of the segment to clear it and not cause everything to fall on the ground and cause me hours of drones having to pick all the stuff up.
