integer llGetInventoryNumber(string name)

Returns the inventory number of name, or -1 if name is not found in inventory.
Scripters need a better way to know if an item exists within an object's inventory then llGetInventoryKey. llGetInventoryKey returns NULL_KEY when an item is no-copy, severely crippling its ability to provide this information.

How about list llGetInventorySubString(string name) and integer llGetInventoryNumberSubString(string name) instead?

This is because the name you chose is already in existance, Chris:

use llGetInventoryPermMask to detect if it already exists.

I would like to see
llGetInventoryType where it returns the INVENTORY_* flag of the type it is. Returning -1 if it doesn't exist.
