I tried Gamma 2.00 - 2.02, and I noticed that the galaxy map now allows me to select stars simply by looking at them. The problem with this is that my selection doesn't get locked, and when I rotate my head to the left to read the information window - my head's rotational trajectory traces a path through every single star between my intended star to the info window. And as my eyesight traces through these stars, they get selected like "pop, pop, pop, pop" - and when I've reached the information window, I've lost the lock on my intended target star, and can no longer read the info box. The only way then is to resort to use the popover menu and select System View (if I don't select another star while doing so).
It generally feels a lot more flimsy now.
edit: As my 9 year old modified HOTAS Cougar got one of the gimbal's springs break off last week, I have been playing the Gamma 2 with mouse and keyboard and DK2.
I'm selecting stars with my mouse, and as I move my head to the left window, all other stars in my gaze's path gets selected also.
