One action that I find myself doing in every game is renaming fleets. Especially when I have several fleets in the same system I'd like to assign them individual names quickly, so that later I don't have to browse through fleets to find out what fleet is what.
E.g. imagine a system where I have the following fleets:
1. Colony ship + defence ships for it, sitting there and waiting to move out.
2. A fleet of leechers, that is hiding from opponent for a cople of turns
3. A system guarding fleet
4. A cheap fleet that is waiting to accumulate manpower to go to attack
5. Two fleets that are waiting for repair
6. Arc
7. Scouts waiting for probes to replenish
I'd like to, say, doubleclick their names or hotkey+click, to quickly remane rename them into something like
Colony
Abductors
Defence - Auriga
Assault 3
Battleforce - rockets
Battleforce - lazers
Arc - Auriga
Probemaster
, so that next turn when I switch through the systems I can quicky understand what I see.
Now I can do it by going to a list of fleets, but it's not straightforward - this is an extra menu, and fleets are hard to find in the common list, especially late game when I have lots of them. It would be good to be able to do it from the main screen.
