Wood Chippings reverted back to inventory instead of ground

a while back wood chippings were changed to drop on the ground instead of being placed in your inventory.... this was nice at the time since there was no use for them.
but now they are needed for torch posts and most importantly farming..... can we place either revert it back to chippings going in to your inventory.... or change the despawn time on them so they stay on the ground longer.
