I absolutely adore how I can just tap the H key and go back to my capitol on the map. What I'd love even more would be if I could hotkey other coordinates just like that. I think it would be far more efficient/effective than designating rally points...

Any other keyboard ideas out there?

Group actions, obviously... Like a key that lets you give bombard commands to every single unit of the selected type in that stack, and a key that lets you command all the workers in a stack to take care of pollution in your territory (even though I know the current whack-a-mole pollution is being removed. ;p)

More shortcut keys i various menus like the "go to city" command. In civ II pressing a letter hilighted the first city which name started with that letter. That was nice.

Evenjust being able to customise the basic hotkeys would be nice. Mostly so as to get rid of annoying ones like auto-explore and to change annoyances such as 'automate clear damage' being the exact same shortcut as 'diplomacy'.

It would be nice if the multimedia keyboards
(next track/previous track) would work in-game.
