Return affix shards to inventory / transfer to Softocre from Hardcore

Didn’t find similar thread that is open, but I remember seeing similar suggestions somewhere.
Would be nice to have an ability to return affix shards to their “item” form after they are stored in a crafting tab.
This would serve several purposes:
1 Allow them to be tradable for MG players (tbh they can make them tradable without that, but making them into items is another way to do this)
2 Allow to transfer them to Softcore from Hardcore if your main character dies on HC, but you still want to continue the game on SC. Unless you already can, in which case I’d like to know how.
