Small thing for everyone who's ever had to pulse an ancillary shield booster or ancillary armor repairer overheated.

Currently, an overheated module stops being overheated when you turn the module off. Similar to the "set auto-repeat off" and similar options, could we get an option in the right-click menu to leave a module overheated when we turn the module itself off.

.... while we're at it, would it be possible to pre-overheat a module while still under gatecloak? When I need to burn back, I like to cook my MWD.

Has been suggested roughly 8,436,543,665 times before, give or take a couple times. I'm sure if CCP wants to do this, it's already on their list.

Reported for redundancy.
