Give us a scaleable minimap

The Scope

Watching some of the Alliance Tournament footage from AT10 gave me a great idea.

The problem with Eve combat is that you need to be zoomed out to see the tatical picture, but all the eye candy needs you to be zoomed in. For example, even the vaunted R&Ks vids looses all eye-candy because of the need to keep zoomed out.

In the ATX, there was a mini-map that allowed us to see both the eye candy and the tatical picture.

We need something similar to the ATX tatical view for Tranquility. Perhaps a new window that can be opened with a alternate view which is scalable and the view can be zoomed in and out to one's preference. One of the windows can then be used for a tatical view and the other for a simultaneous eye-candy view.
