It used to be the item types... then libraries wanted to be able to change
them. The issue is, I think, that not for all libraries item types reflect
material types, and that makes a lot of sense. For academic libraries you'll be
more likely to find things like 'overnight loan' 'reference' or 'normal loan'.
That would not be helpful in the ordering process.

But I fully agree that it only makes sense if we pull it through somehow. 

Would showing it on the list of suggestions where you pick them for ordering
work?
