I prefer to use "Forward Only" for throttle on my HOTAS and press an out-of-the-way button when I need to reverse. But when I am in a situation where I need to reverse, I find myself toggling the throttle repeatedly in a rather awkward fashion. I wish that, instead of/in addition to toggling between "Forward" and "Reverse," the button could toggle between "Forward" and "Full Range." This would enable precise landing maneuvers without the awkwardness of repeatedly pressing the button to switch throttle modes.
[Suggestion] Button to toggle Throttle Axis Range

It would be good to have a more clear indicator that we are in Reverse than the meter next to the sensor display. A large "R" at the top of the speedometer would work for me. Even though the speed-graph indicates direction, I have occasionally found myself in reverse by accident, or in Supercruise momentarily wondering why my throttle is not responding.
And an indicator for when our headlights are on.
Seems pretty basic.

I have reverse throttle programmed on my left rudder pedal toe brake [Hold] and on the pinkie switch on the throttle [Toggle]
That way. I can just hit the pedal for a short reverse input, or flip the pinkie switch if I think I want to stay in reverse for a longer time.
The momentary reverse on the left toe brake and Boost programmed on the right toe brake really work nicely in combat. Tapping reverse really tightens the turn radius when you want to get on someones 6.
