Summary0003533: "Autocrop" Zoom
DescriptionHere's what we have now: Q,W,E,R for different zoom levels.

Here's what I'd like: Shift-Q automatically zooms and pans to the perfect zoom level, whereby all planetary wormholes fit on the screen.

(Old, longer description: in the planetary view, pushing one button zooms out and adjusts the camera to fit in all wormholes and home stations on the screen. No more picking that perfect zoom level and manually moving the map around so that you can see everything without zooming out to nosebleed distances. Anal-retentive players will thank you.

Alternative: bring back the minimap in the corner. Make it resizeable. Make it optional. Just retool the overlay so that it's always visible and in the corner, and have it zoom to full size with 'T'.)
