Best new Mission Architect feature

From the City Scoop on surviving AE:

3. If you have trouble with people firing off powers, look for a door marked Studio B (left side of the Data Stream). This room is a “no Powers lounge” for making missions quietly. If people crowding you at the terminals bother you, type: /macro MA architect. This will create a little button on your toolbar and allow you to access the browser/editor from anywhere in the building. Once you earn the Mission Engineer Accolade, you will have this ability anywhere in game, even inside your missions.

First off, the idea of having a “No Powers” zone is brilliant. Can we please port this technology to Wentworth’s / the Black Market? And inside City Hall (Atlas) and whatever the big civic building is in Galaxy? (Presumably it doesn’t detoggle anything, so you don’t get gacked when you step outside the zone.)

Second, being able to access AE interfaces anywhere in the building and, after an Accolade, anywhere in the game, is remarkably convenient. Please let me know when I can access crafting tables the same way persistently, rather than either through a lame temp power or by going to bases or the universities. (Guys, the crafting stuff is an abstraction. Let’s just treat it as even more of same. I don’t have to go someplace special to install Enhancements; it’s annoying enough I have to go someplace special to buy them, but even that’s just a one-step activity.)
