Firegroup error messages

So I've sussed you can hang quite a few different scanning things on the same firegroup which keeps it down to two:
On Fire One: Scan wake, surface scan, interdictor
On Fire Two: Discovery scanner, data link scanner and comp scanner and it works surprising well, those scans that can't work are faded whilsts the others are live - but...

Could we mayhaps get rid of that annoying 'Module cannot be used in this mode' ms please?

Also, whilst you're at it, when we click over to combat mode select weaponry and when in science mode choose the scanning firegroup would be most useful.

Thre was a considerable amount of discussion here on the forum about his issue during the beta, which was entirely ignored by FD.

Yeah, I've been doing this since the beta and requested the errors be removed. I put all scanners except the DSS on one trigger with the inderdictor if I have one, and usually put weapons or limpets on the same one as the DSS. I've pretty much given up on getting any useful information from the top-right panel.

It's been requested many times. There's basically nobody opposed to this suggestion. It would not be the best, but the quickest and easiest way, to make mode switches and fire groups actually useful.

Up to now FD decided to disregard it.

I am OK to know what exactly module cannot be used. Something like "pulse laser: cannot be used in this cockpit mode" and so on.
