I would like to have an easier way to find my units on the map. I recommend making a way to select a unit on the Military screen and then go directly to it on the map.

Yes, that would be a very useful feature.

I desire, at least, effort is going to improve the Military Advisor screen, I have been experiencing an annoyingly slow (if not lagging) scrolling up or down to search for the units I was after.

No 2 on the Frequently Requested Features list, I think. Here is my list of changes: any other ideas?

1) Military Adviser should be able to list units by location, army, or alphabetically. [By location would make transferring troops a snap!]
2) Military Adviser should NOT show the province build data (level of farms etc) - we dont need that from this screen, and it just litters up the list.
3) Should be able to rightclick a unit and jump into Military adviser with that unit selected, or select a unit in Military Adviser and jump to that unit on the strategic map.
4) Should have a 'disband unit' option which add the population of the unit into the province where they current are, IF the unit is in home territory.

How about listing the distance and cost of a trade route on the Proposing Trade Screen once the two provinces are selected but before the trade is proposed?

Deal making requires much engineering effort beyong just that. Playing the trade minister of my own nation is unfailingly a dauntingly onerous task challenging my patience as well as my memory.
