But the "String" input that you mention confounds the situation somewhat, as there are several crafted and non-crafted items that can fulfill that input (and many other inputs still offer no craftable alternatives at all). It feels somewhat misinforming to present a single (or perhaps a list of) craftable items on such inputs, almost implying that the presented alternative(s) is that which must be used, which I don't really like.
I would've considered OP's suggestion a no-brainer but this response helped explain why it isn't the case. Currently it would provide rather marginal advantage in bare handful of crafts like Linen Cloth and Butter.

I'm quite confident that loftar is able to have the server compile a list of what possible materials for a craft are known to the character - and present them in a clickable manner (or with tooltips for stuff that isn't made by a craft).

Ran into another thing where this would help, "Bread Dough" -icon on Pirozhki recipe.
