CCP, could you remove the "long-click" menu please?

Yes, I'm talking about that horrible thing that pops up when you just want to move your camera a bit and stupidly enough start spinning by clicking a station or your ship or whatever. Seriously, does anyone even use this thing?

And on another relatively related note. This stupid menu even appears sometimes when I'm just looking around, as if I let my mousebutton go and click again. Sometimes, my ship also starts moving in random directions when I spin my ship in space as if I doubleclicked somewhere. That's awesome when multiboxing and not paying attention to my scout.....

while (CurrentSelectedTarget.Status == ShipStatus.Alive) {

     _myShip.FireAllGuns(CurrentSelectedTarget);

}

I agree, though I also don't use the feature. Maybe someone does...

This "feature" is just as useful as the "look at item you hover over" that they removed a while ago.

while (CurrentSelectedTarget.Status == ShipStatus.Alive) {

     _myShip.FireAllGuns(CurrentSelectedTarget);

}

And that was the death of this thread Cry

while (CurrentSelectedTarget.Status == ShipStatus.Alive) {

     _myShip.FireAllGuns(CurrentSelectedTarget);

}

Bump.
Nobody else want to see this thing gone?

while (CurrentSelectedTarget.Status == ShipStatus.Alive) {

     _myShip.FireAllGuns(CurrentSelectedTarget);

}

Maybe a checkbox to disable it, if possible. I don't use it, but I've seen something similar in other games (Neverwinter Nights, if I remember correctly). It may be useful in some situations, but not sure. Considering there isn't any reference to it in the tutorial, I doubt many people even know it's there until they accidentally access it.
