Ye it would be very helpful to include the button in the tooltips.

And about cloak: It would be useful if you could put stations behind a key (like one fleet), it would help significantly if you want to cloak whole base.

If you mean in the same way as ship fleets (Ctrl+1,2,etc) that already works, ships just take priority.

Or did you mean a single key that selects all stations?

Yes, I mean same way as fleets can be. But I can't put mining stations, research stations and turrets behind same key. If I could select at least turrets behind same key, it would be quite useful if I'm playing as romulan.

That is true, but you can't have many stations in same fleet.

The ship buttons from mixtech yards need shortcuts, too.
