An input box that allows you to enter any number of coords (for example "1:2:3 4 5 6 7.8.9" or "3:4:*", support any non-alphanumerical delimited separating X, Y and Z), along with 8 checkboxes that allow you to select the scan types (plural) you wish to do. This would also remove the need for custom galaxy or alliance scanning interfaces.
