Add a way to speed up ship movement on the main map

It would be nice if there was a way in game to speed up the movement/animation of a given ship.  I find I spend a lot of time watching ships moving for trivial actions (as I probably spend too much time manually controlling too many ships).

 

I don't necessarily want a global civ-like instant move option.  But in some games you can double click to do a fast move, or hold shift to speed up a unit's movement - something like that would be ideal.  So when my 20+ move constructor is putzing along I can give it a swift kick and move on to the next constructor a bit quicker.

That would be nice. 

However, I noticed that if the movement takes place outside your view, than it is nearly instant. Meaning try moving the map so you don't see your ship for a second and than go back. If you moving a constructor to a starbase, you can enter the starbase management screen immediately and the constructor will arrive in a shorter time.
