Please Add Tooltips for Overview Types

There are so many different types of things that can be toggled on the overview that it is really difficult to know what is actually being turned on or off in space.

For example, I have no idea what the difference is between a Protective Sentry Gun and a Sentry Gun. What are the "Roaming" ship types?

This is especially confusing because it has to be configured independently for multiple tabs. Sure, it's easy to copy some tab settings as a baseline, but that's only good when you're setting it up the first time. When you want to modify things based on new types being put into the game, you've gotta figure out what's what in space and go change every overview preset.

Tooltips on all the different types that tell me exactly what that type is and where I'm likely to encounter it in space would be extremely helpful.
