Using the drag to tab bug as a feature

The current bug with the inventory, where you can not drag items from container to container via dragging to the tab of the stacked windows, this might be a possible solution for some old issues..

What if double clicking from personal assets list and corporate assets list/offices took you directly to the inventory view mode, but where moving between tabs was prohibited, but stacking, viewing, and filtering was perfectly functional?

This would resolve the stack remote problem, and be a very nice way of fully integrating the new inventory UI..


On the topic of the new inventory I would like to also mention here, as in the longer post some of the important suggestions.

To transition easy from the old to the new system I think making a feature to save selections and add it to the neocon as a button would be very useful in hundreds of ways, and would make it possible to make the new system feel a bit like the old, until people are used to it.

What I am saying is that say the old ships icon and old items icon on the neocom would now simply be a shortcut/preselection feature. If you then added new windows to your "desktop" setup, you could save all these as one preselected setting. If the method of saving these was made semi simple available in player client folders, I would also see a potential of inventory setting being shared, imported and exported. This could be really useful in so many ways, and I cant even imagine all the potential variations of usage.. Sending preset inventory setting to noobies say in EVE UNI, so a miner could use this shortcut directly and it would open all the relevant cans etc from the hangar floors he had access to..
