When you are making your redstone suggestions, please note that Java and Bedrock will not have the exact same the same redstone systems - this would require redoing redstone system completely on one platform or the other. The two systems are functionally different and are going to stay that way. Please be sure to tag your suggestions with (Java) or (Bedrock).

Non Stackable Item Filter

 

A new block that can receive items through hoppers and dispensers. 
This block has a GUI interface with 2 slots. Slot 1 is where you will put a ns item (eg. shulker box) Once an item (ns) is placed in slot 1, it becomes ‘locked’ meaning you cannot remove that item by hand, with a hopper, a hopper minecart or anything. However you can break the block (with a pick) which will drop the block and the item. Because this item is now locked in the block, the second slot will ONLY be able to hold an item (ns) that matches the first item. Ie. a totem of undying in slot 1 means only a totem of undying can go in slot 2.

However a hopper underneath this block can pull the item in slot 2, essentially allowing a ns item filter in Minecraft that is automatic but still requires redstone circuits to input and extract items. Can be incorporated into storage systems using skilled redstone expertise.
Additionally this item will also be able to accept seconds slot items that have different durability’s. (eg a full durability wooden sword in slot 1 means that any wooden sword on any durability can be accepted in slot 2)
This ns item block filter will also be able to accept items with different NBT data in slot 2. Ie. a bee hive in slot 1 with or without NBT data could accept a bee hive in slot 2 with or without NBT data & different number of tags. Finally this block could also accept enchanted variants in slot 2 (eg. enchanted bows)

    POSSIBLE crafting recipe: gold blocks in each corner, 2 redstone dust in middle column on seperate ends, 1 bucket in the middle (or another ns item or an expensive item such as netherite ingot) & 2 smooth stone in the remaining slots.
