Except the build list is not alphabethical, but divided into categories. I
think the correct approach is to let rulesets decide, for example "name =
[S]ettler" giving the settler the "s" shortkey. Or a separate "shortkey =
s" option. I agree such a feature would be great, but I'm not going to do
this.
