The "Selected Item" box needs culling.

The 'Selected Item' box has become quite bloated with buttons.

There are many buttons that could be outright removed in order to keep the 'Selected Item' box from becoming progressively wider with each introduction of a shiny new camera feature, and help make it easier to push the right button when the time comes.

Celestial objects

"View in Planet Mode" is awful and should NOT be located right next to 'Warp To'. A button that locks up your client for 5-10 seconds and will result in certain death when in combat should be tucked under a contextual menu.
"Orbit", "Keep at Range", "Target", and "Look At" are all irrelevant when selecting celestial objects.

Ships

"Board Ship" : This button should be hidden unless if the ship is actually empty.
"Start Conversation" : Likewise, this button should also be hidden unless if the selected ship is actually a mission NPC.


Simple enough, right?

I'd like to be able to at least move buttons around. Make it customizable.
