Huh, I was, am and will be agianst dropping limitation. Momentary
huge mass movement for a long distance is a bad thing for me. (Yes,
unlimited railways movement is a bad thing for me too.)

Airlifting into teammates/allies cities should be allowed. (Well,
it should be allowed to cities, in which we can have our units.)
