Summary0001381: Make triple-click select all ships of that type on-screen, regardless of mark
DescriptionCurrently, double-click selects all ships on-screen that matches the clicked ships type and mark. I propose a triple-click that selects all ships of that type on-screen, regardless of mark.

As a temporary solution, if you click for instance fighters on the right sidebar thing. You'll get them all selected, regardless of mark.

What about double clicking selecting all marks of a ship, and then you can select which mark you want in the selection box in the bottom right.

I support the triple-click concept.

For 5.002:

* Courtesy of being really high on the vote tallies: previously double-clicking a single unit would select all (your) units of that exact type on the screen. Now triple-clicking will do the same thing except it will include all units of the same general type (ShipType). Meaning that triple-clicking a fighter of any mark will select all your fighters of any mark on the screen.
** Caveat: the general categorization being used is sometimes more general than mark; notably remains rebuilders have the same ShipType as engineers. Requests to make triple-clicking an engineer not also select remains rebuilders are likely to be ignored ;)
** Also, we have to do this triple-click detection manually, so basically it's looking for a third click within 3 tenths of a second after the double-click selection. If this timing is problematic, let us know.
