Say we have a bunch of similar tweaks:
4 Insto Shield 1's
2 Insto Shield 2's
3 Insto Shield 3's
6 Super Shield Soothers's

Is it possible to (auto)stack them into the UI so that when you use the Hotkey, it uses up the most powerful/least powerful one first, then goes on down the list.

And then moving cursor over the hotkey tab/right click, scroll down for menu show the full list in a window for advanced customization if the default is not what you want?

If this is not in c2's release...maybe the patch after it, or c3?

For the love of god, don't start asking for stuff in C3. That'll be a decade off in all likelihood.

Not currently possible, but I would like to eventually adding a simple scripting language that you could attach to hotkeys, which could easily include a command to use the first found out of a list of item names.

This was in the original spec. I assume Jey will put it in soon cause he's the one that wanted it, so once he starts actually playing the game in c2 he will probably add it
