Suggestion: Quests from items

Is it possible without a huge coding hassle for you guys, to mark quest's in the database that begin from an item?

A simple example would be this item http://www.wowhead.com/?item=1972. It's marked on the Carb map as http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=184, in the correct location in the bandit camp in SE Elwynn Forest. The tooltip only references the Quest title, not that you have to get the deed from the mobs as a random drop. Would it be possible to add into the tooltip something to the extent "Dropped Item" or similar?

For quests that start from items we should be using the location of the NPC that dropped the item or object that contained. We should be able to include this info somewhere. This is on the list...just not sure when we'll get to it.

It might also be good if the (carbonite) map icon for the quest is somehow different from a NPC-given quest (E.g. A !).
