Post em! I know there are a lot of both. Please try and keep the discussion to interface elements and let's see what kind of list we get. I'll start.
Gripes:
-You can't set a station as a destination.
-You can't set ABs/MWDs to activate automatically during auto-pilot, non-warp travel.
Suggestions:
-A context menu for splitting stacked items in half, into thirds, quarters, etc (for dividing up mineral hauls or loot to gagn or corp members)

When doing missions you can't set destination(s) from the journal (ie. make them right clickable)
Yeah, that is a good one.

Is that because you want to AFK travel? If so its good job you can't. AFK travel is death on a stick even in 1.0. The amount of people that have complained in the past of loosing a ship while being AFK is unreal. They deserve all they get.
All AFK activities should be curbed.
No it's not because I want to AFK travel, I just think it is a pain in the ass to have to make this trip then get dumped in a system and then have to find your station, especially when many of them share the same name.
Sure people get killed AFK traveling but that is their fault and something that this would not make worse, it is a small part of any trip over 7 jumps and people will AFK travel those no matter what since they can be so long.
Anyways, back to the topic at hand.
Suggestion:
-MAPPABLE KEYS!! I know that this is hard considering most times you have an active cursor in a text input window but there must be a way of making it so you can set something like holding alt and clicking a ship will do something and holding shift and shift and clicking might do something else. Basically the idea being to have keyboard shortcut methods for things in context menus so you can get to them faster in a pinch.

My gripe is that this thread is in the Genrel forum and not the Idea Lab. PLease move it where it belongs, Polaris.
I thought about putting it in the Idea lab but since it is primarily for people to gripe in I somehow didn't think it belonged there. If someone feels it would be better off there, so be it.

I just thought of this one!
Gripe:
-there is no way to mark yourself as AFK or an auto-AFK threshold that can be set so people know when they are talking to no one :-)

I can't believe no one mentioned the fact that you can't select your own MP3s from the in-game jukebox. hmmmmmm
Any other gripes or suggestions for the interface? I was hoping to take all these ideas and make a concise wishlist for the devs.

Set station as destination would be good.
Riffix - just use winamp.
Well, before that wasn't an option because eve would crash when minimized for me. That is fixed now and Winamp is an option but I am just making the point that it would be easier and better if we could just do it in-game. Would also save resource overhead.
As for the other gripes and suggestions, I made a thread in the idea lab for it now taking most of these into account as well as others I have seen pop up in the forums. Everyone feel free to read and add anymore to this thread.
