Some ideas include allowing the communication rose thingy keys to be bound to an entirely different set of keys, like the numpad or something centered around h. And obviously, let us bind individual comm rose thingies to keys. So I can just mouse4 and go all "Enemy armor spotted!" (context-sensitive) or hit my mouse5 and be all "Attack that target!" (squad context sensitive).
I'd totally forgotten about this....but my G15 has the macros, I should try using getting macros set up to do this stuff...
