Summary	0024001: Show range of decloakers
Description	When you have only cloaked units selected, it would be nice to display the combined range of decloakers in the system. I'd go for an overlay-type display instead of the forest of circles that is the regular range display you get with Z. For example all the "ground" covered by decloakers could have a red tint or be darker than the surrounding environment. The idea is to help you navigate cloaked units around in safe locations when deepstriking instead of hovering over icons in the system to look for units with decloaking abilities. Particularly helpful for newbies who don't know the ship types at all, of course. I specifically would like to avoid the addition of yet another hotkey since people just can't remember or know about those in the first place. Hence the "when only cloaked units are selected" part. My personal ranking for this is a low-priority nice-to-have with a medium impact on gameplay.
