I'd like to have an exit all option for when I go in to work on my options in game. Normally, I'm just tweaking an input or graphics setting and once I'm done, I have to close out at least 3 boxes. An 'exit and close' option would be nice to get back to my hud quickly.

Try this

/lua Game.Quit()

he means closing all option dialogs.
not quit the game.

what is wrong with people and clicking boxes...."oh god help i lost 3 seconds clicking back!!!"

Its a low priority convenience request. Rather like all the other computer shortcuts taken for granted every day.

But if you must know, those 3 seconds are cutting into my 10 minute trip to Sedina or my 5 minutes of watching the roid I'm currently mining or delaying my launch to do hive skirmish. Or cutting into the hour and a half I have to do my procurement mission which will only take me 15 minutes to complete because I cheat.

They are precious seconds that are better spent grinding I say! Grinding!
