Change Game Speed & Deconstruct

I tried to search for this topic but nothing came up relevant.
Two ideas that may be worth exploring if not yet considered.

Is it possible to add a feature so you can adjust the game speed while you are playing the game? Would help if you are in a large scale battle to slow down time or speed up time when nothing major is going on.

Also a way to deconstruct or remove a built structure?
I find it when my empire exands, I do not need as many orbitals or like to reposition them.

or press the H key

Though i have tried a few times using the H key ( like in HW for the harvesters to auto harvest) on my scouts to make them auto explore. A few sec later i get a message saying it was shuttled LOL

No, but in single-player you can pause and issue orders.
