[Suggestion]List of all units and toggling between them

from Elemental Forums

EDIT: Removed the bug report (why can't I delete posts here?) due me missing a simple thing in the game. Leaving the suggestion intact.

Suggestion:

It would be cool if all units did line up as circles on the bottom left of the menu bar, and get stacked closer and closer depending on how many you have. Inactive/fortified(?) units could be half sunken down into the menu bar, and the active unit should make more room for itself to be fully displayed. There should then be a button to toggle between all units.

use HOME and END keys to cycle through previous and next unit, respectively.  To cycle through all units and cities together, use the TAB key.

Will there also be a pair of keys for sites so you can step forward and backward through just them like HOME and END do for units?

p.s. It might also be good to assign SHIFT+TAB as the opposite direction on whatever list TAB steps through. It's sort of a logical opposite, and having HOME and END work as a bidirectional pair leaves me expecting the same thing for other lists.

Hmm... quote doesn't seem to work for me on the forum right now.

Anyway...

What I actually meant was graphical buttons to click on with my mouse (or one at least)... like what MoM had...

Also, I'm on Apple hardware, so I don't have HOME or END keys.
