It would be handy to be able to sort the planets on the left side of the screen instead of them being listed by first conquered.  Sometimes I want to increase the size of my fleet and have to look through quite a few planets to find one with an unused fleet logistics available.  It would also be good to be able to sort by metal/crytals to be able to quickly find where to add refineries.  It would be equally be useful to find which planets have capital ship shipyards or light shipyards.  I can think of plenty more but you get the idea, having to run through a long list of planets seems to be inefficient imo.
Any suggestions?
