Quickfix for vending stands.

[Gauteamus]

I read this thread, but made my own topic, as my suggestion is slightly off topic in that thread, but addresses some of the issues.
viewtopic.php?f=5&t=7221

Instead of making a complete item list tradeable in vending stands (or the subset of items known to the player), simply allow a small subset of items to be used as payment alongside the coins - my suggestion would be to allow linen, leather and silk thread/cloth, all with a slider to set wanted quality.
A small item list such as this one spoils very little high level content to players, is "historically" and practically acceptible (with the items being easily stackable).
And it would at least partially help with the situation where only metal mongers (and coinpress mongers) have access to the currency of stands.

Suggested list of accepted materials:

• *Linen
  *Leather
  *Silk thread
  *Silk cloth
  *Pearls

OP edited slightly for readability, but mostly a shameless selfbump.
