Is there a way to block a warbank tab from being used by work orders?

I’ve been loving the update to allow work orders to use materials from the warbank, but I just got bit by an issue from the opposite direction. I have a few materials stored there for a future craft including a missive, and accidentally used that missive from the warbank for a craft tonight instead of the one I intended because I was expecting only to have the one in my actual bags as a choice. The resulting required recraft is not fun or cheap, to say the least.

Obviously this is in part user error and I’ll have to watch more closely in the future. However, I think we need a way to be able to block off a single warbank tab from being accessible by our professions so that we have a way to store things we don’t intend to use until a specified time. As it is there isn’t a single place I can put those materials that wouldn’t be accidentally usable by work orders except juggling them around between characters or leaving them sitting in the mailbox.

Maybe this feature already exists and I just don’t know how to get to it, but so far I haven’t found it.

Store those niche items on a toon (and remember which one)

Yes! Engy parts are the most likely to disappear in the manner described. If I plan to craft something like a mining hat for my JC/Miner, I’ll send her the R3 mats to store in her reagent bank. No danger of unwanted use until I am ready to do that craft.

Yes, I did mention that as a “solution”. It is clunky however and seems to defeat the purpose of the warbank, which is why I’m asking for a way to block tabs if there is one. If not, they should add an option.

I put mats I dont want to get used by accident in an old bank toons bank… that includes some r3 enchanting materials which are easily consumed by patron orders if you are not careful.
