!NEEDS_WORK Meta command - Orion Pobursky - 2023-06-12

What's the feeling on a !NEEDS_WORK meta? Would this be better than the current way of doing things?

Here's my proposal

0 !NEEDS_WORK <reason>
Where:
<reason> is a short description of what aspect of the part needs work.

Seems simple enough.

With my little knowledge I not oppose, but whay don't keep it as is and use the Help meta command to clarify the issiu? Also it work as a reminder to the users that there is something bad with the part when you read the name.

You bring up a good point. I think the !HELP method is probably better than a new meta.
