Jump bridges and route planning

For a lot of 0.0 players residing in alliance space, jump bridges are a very useful tool for getting around. However if you wish to use them, you have to navigate yourself manually. I would like to see a possible option to allow jump bridges to be added to the normal route planner. This would make it much easier for pilots to navigate their own space and use their resources to their advantage. Given all the different factors in play, the route planner will not tell you if the bridge is online, fueled, or incapacitated. It also won't tell you where it is in system if you don't already have it bookmarked.

Use GTS. There is a public release here: http://themittani.com/features/garpa-celebrates-10-years-eve-gts-goes-public

Sure, it's an out-of-game tool. But since Coalitions are not (and should not be) officially supported in-game, you're not going to get a system that will in-game show you assets of people who have you set blue (which would be needed to support visibility/planning of friendly JBs in-game). Since that isn't going to happen, just use GTS instead. Provided that you're using a current JB list, it'll do everything you want from a route planner except autopilot you around.
