Similar how you can drag objects from your hangar, or a person from the overview, to mail or chat and it will paste a link. But I would like to be able to drag the icon from a show info window and to the same thing. As it is today you'll have to write the text manually and if you're in a hurry it can be hard to type Small Projectile Locus Coordinator I.

It would also be nice if you could drag an object to the ingame browser and it would just paste the name.

The number of times I've tried this in the vague hopes that it has been quietly implemented without my knowing. And perhaps a more heuristic approach so that if it's misspelt just a little, the search function offers the nearest matches. One letter wrong in a system or item name, gah!

It would also be nice if you could combine "Show Fitting" and "Show Info" when you dragged a ship from your hangar into the chat.

This is my signature. There are many like it, but this one is mine.
