Optional pop-up console for orders

Suggestion Idea: An optional pop-up console in which a player can enter his orders. As it would be a pop up, it could be moved around the map, allowing for a clear view of what you are doing.

Specifics: Players who chose this option would generate a pop-up window. The interior of the pop up window would be identical to the portion of the current main window where placement, attacks, and fortifications are completed. As it is a pop-up, they could move it around, above the map.

Why it is needed: Okay, as I suspect true of most of my suggestions, this is based on my own weaknesses. Twice today I have screwed up, because I get too lazy to scroll the screen up, then down, then up, then down, then up, etc. etc. etc....
As an added bonus however, such a console would make larger maps then are currently available, viable.

1st: Lack doesn't like pop-ups, so don't waste time suggesting them.

2nd: If you want pop-ups, download greasemonkey from Mozilla. And install this user script that does require confirmation for some moves (deployment, auto-attack, end turn).
