Oh nice. I'm glad it's being addressed. I hope they don't take the crafting materials out entirely (I'm one of those weirdoes that doesn't mind getting them) but rather leaves them in dropping alongside gear. As much as I like getting a few coke/animal fat/etc from a dungeon, I have to say there is nothing quite so disappointing than beating the boss, opening the chest, and finding that pirates were there before you and left their cooking sherry behind. I guess it was too nasty for even them to drink. :c
