Pilot's name appears above their ship permanently after scanning it.

I often end up scanning the same ship 3+ times when flying around in a nav point looking for bounties because I can't tell if I already scanned it or not. The pilot's name should appear next to their ship after scanning said ship, even if you no longer have the ship targeted.

That will make it to easy.

If you re-target someone you've scanned, their details appear in the target window (front cockpit panel - to the left). Or are you seriously complaining that you have to glance to the left of your cockpit (not left side panel, to be clear) to confirm if you've already looked at the currently targeted ship?

Less of a complaint and more of a hey maybe this could improve gameplay. You know, a suggestion.
