    *** Overview - Describe the feature from an end-user perspective.
    Add a new field showing the equip location (i.e. Head Slot, shoulder, etc) to the XML output

    *** Functionality - Describe the feature from a development perspective.
    The loot tracking (in Loot.lua) would need to add tracking, serialization, and deserialization for the item equip location.  Additionally, the exporter would need to be updated to output the new data.

    *** Notes - Is there any additional information to provide regarding this feature?
    itemEquipLoc is already returned from the GetItemInfo() call;  Currently, it appears that data is simply not kept.

    *** Use cases - How would a user make use of this feature?
    I am using the XML output to store into a database.  Simple queries can determine who has had recent loot, attendance numbers, etc.  It would be very helpful to add a search to determine which of several players have received gear for a certain item slot more recently.
