My suggestion is simple; to make it far easier to get on Singularity, add something to the launcher that specifies whether you want to play on Tranquility or Singularity, so you can patch your game for the test server without having to do that weird, slightly confusing shortcut thing that you have to do currently if you want to play on Singularity. This seems like it would be very easy to do and take very little time at all.

If you're gonna post here thinking your idea is the greatest thing since bacon and that it will save EVE and possibly all humankind with it, you're gonna have a bad time.

So you want to repatch your game every time you want to switch between Tranquility and Singularity?
Seems like a complete waste of time and bandwidth.

Enjoying the rain today? ;)

No, I just want it to be easier to make a seperate folder for singularity, patching between tranquility and singularity each time would be way too annoying.

It says very clearly at the top of that page that Sisi Launcher is no longer supported and is being replaced by the normal game launcher, hence this suggestion.

It's not the regular launcher used for TQ, it's a patched version for SiSi. The SiSi tool just prepares everything for you like copying your EVE folder and getting the new launcher. Feel free to correct me, but that's the way it looks when comparing launcher exes.
