Summary	0016766: Keyboard shortcuts for attack modes
Description	Currently, I find it unnecessarily hard to send high-velocity munitions in the general direction of my many enemies. Keybindings for "attack with helicopters", "murder with battlecruisers", "kill with fire", etc. would allow me to satisfy my violent urges more easily.
Tags	No tags attached.

Would this be resolved with the hotkey system that Chris has on his list? Example: Press B to enter Build a Civic Building Mode. Press A to build a Police Station (from Build a Civic Building Mode). Press A to enter Attack Mode. Press H to enter Helipad Attack Mode (from Attack Mode). Etc.
