From time to time we will come across a pile of weapons. And of these weapons it consists of a AR, a Plasma Pistol, and a Sniper Rifle. You then shuffle through those three weapons until you finally end up with the Sniper Rifle.Now what I am suggesting is what I am calling, "Action Prioritizing". Now what this is is if you ever come across a situation described above, it will pick the most likely choice based on the importance of said weapons. So if you came across these three weapons all piled up, the game would choose your most likely choice, being the sniper rifle, and give you the option for that weapon opposed to a plasma pistol. And if you are silly enough not to want the Sniper Rifle it would then offer you the next best choice being the AR, etc.. Same goes for if you are trying to activate a bridge or something. Tell me what you think of this.
-EDIT-
Customizable list of actions that you could prioritize would fix the problem of complaints against personalizing the function. Example someone likes to get plasma pistol kills for some reason. They can customize it to put that at the top of their list.
-EDIT-
Before you post on this topic, let me intoduce a concept to some of you. Instead of completely bashing the idea like this guy:

No, that just makes things more complicated when you can just pick up weapons yourself.
, Post something like this this guy did:

Every weapon has its purposes, and a Sniper Rifle could also be a silly choice in certain situations. The concept is a bit silly. If anything, I'd say introduce multiple button combinations to provide simultaneously available options (say, upwards of three) if there happened to be a pile of weapons.
However, it isn't that hard to position yourself properly to pick up the one you want, and if it is, you're basically doing the same thing that Action Prioritizing would do, by dropping it away, and picking up another.
It sounds to me like you simply want the most "powerful" weapon to be picked up first regardless of what's in the pile, as well as the circumstance. That's silly.
,and until you can no longer find a solution to the problem with my idea, only then may you bash it with this unsolveable problem. Now continue with your post please...
