You think you could coerce or cajole Darth Pto release the table of all the looted items (or even just weapons) and what tier they are? IE HK Scorcher Advanced, Armek Elite Ion, XXX, YYY, ZZZ, tier 10, and so on
reason being would be it would be much easier, though not ideal, since the GWVS divvies apart weapons by their title, not by their level, to be able to search for all the T9or T7weapons by searching the galaxy for each invidiual title, and not have to sort through1200 items of crafted ship weapons and stacks of T1/2 blasters 
We could fill in the rest of the details ourselves once we had that- like which ones tend towards higher damage, lower mass, better refire rate etc, and make kind of an "re shopping list" for each tier
Figured this would be a lot easier to accomplish than saying "index the GWVS by tier", and it would make buying and selling RE/REable loot a lot more convenient and dynamic, reducing the chassis vendor from the equation a little more
....or heck, even if someone could pull some or all of that data out of the .tre files somehow

Hmm.. you know, I'm really not sure if that could happen. On the one hand, that would be much easier than reorganizing the vendor search (though I'd kill for a level-based component search), but on the other, I don't really see any precedent for it. They seem to like to let us figure that stuff out for ourselves.
It's not excessively difficult to do that, though, it just takes time. For instance, here's pretty much every looted gun in the game.
I will try to look into this at some point. It'd certainly be useful. However, if someone wanted to take the initiative on this, I bet we could compile a pretty complete list ourselves.

I don't see why not, the original loot table was released for the game guide on Jump to Lightspeed. The only problem being is that it was rendered obsolete by changes made in the last week and a half of the Beta.

huh well yeah, that list was mainly what i was looking for
and while it'd be nice to have it for, say, shields (since crafted rxrs, caps, and engines are just as good and boosters, well nothing beats the T4 reward REd), I'd say weapons are the backbone oflooted weapon sales
Thanks to everyone who put that list together I guess now we'll just have to fill in what guns are good for what.
