You know they are not actual copies of the asset right? 
What you see in inventory are just pointers to the asset. 
So all the extra "copies" in your inventory amount to are a few additional rows 
assigned to your inventory records in your inventory cluster.
So in effect making the extra copies to put in folders as outfits sort of 
accomplishes your recommendation anyway right?

The big problem is of course if you have items in 12 different outfits
then you need to have 12 different copies of this item with a card
based system you would need just 1
Im not talking about any "hiding" of items im talking about removing
the need for endless copies. Also you have a problem of folks selling
multiple outfits in a single folder/object
and you land up having to A unpack multiple boxes B fish the parts out
of a crammed folder with the outfit card you could sell the
folder/object and then use a series of cards to separate
the different outfits.

I was thinking of running this as a notecard to minimize the need to
add overhead to the system and as far as the loss of freedom is
concerned A the current system would be retained
B with it being notecard based you could always just edit the notecard
if perms on the card permitted it.
