Mabye there should be a subtab in navigation for sorting all the sectors in the selected system. This could work like itunes where sectors would have names, bots, best bot, monitored by, etc... You could click on one the categories to search ascending or descending by the selected category

I don't think it's ripping it off another idea. It is pretty much expected in mac programs and might be a built in feature.

Given the fact that almost everything's been thought of before, it'll be kind of hard to come up with an idea that could not be called rip-off. Additionally, it makes sense to implement Things That Work, from an engineer's point of view. One does not have to reinvent the wheel with every single step. Originality as a self-sufficient concept is inadequate, and so on, and so forth, etc. pp.

I like the idea.

haha, we're calling header-sortable lists a rip-off of itunes now? I'm sure they ripped it off from a trillion other developers including microshaft who probably ripped it off from some database developer in the mid-'80s. That feature's been around and used by almost everybody since the beginning of the internet.

Sounds like such a great resource that one might almost consider it cheating. Imagine the possibilities for sorted info: number of players in a sector, station commodities, roid data, etc.

It's a little too advanced for a plugin, I think.
