Deconstruction planner set to delete item request slot does not delete item requests in ghost entities

[notnotatschool]

Reproduction:
1. Create a deconstruction planner, set it to whitelist, add "Item request slot" to its whitelist.
2. Create a ghost entity (for example, a ghost gun turret)
3. Add a request to the ghost entity (for example, 10 magazines)
4. Target the ghost entity with the deconstruction planner

Expected behavior: item request is removed
Actual behavior: item request is not removed

Thanks for the report however this is correct. The item request slot entity is distinct from entity ghosts and is not used when entity ghosts are involved.

Is it possible to use a deconstruction planner to remove item request ghosts from ghost entities at all, then? If not, then I would like if that were made possible, perhaps by adding a "Ghost item request slot" thingy to the deconstruction planner's icon pickers.

It is not. The deconstruction planner removes entities and tiles. It doesn't have any support for removing specific items from anything.

The upgrade planner can be configured to set module requests.
