A lot of the stuff related to setting orders needs improvement. It would also be great to be able to edit the list of orders: add, remove, re-order. Undo/redo would help when you are trying to move the map and accidentally right-click too quickly and it erases your whole list of orders.
Also when on a server, the orders apparently need to be sent to the server and back before they show up (WHY?!?!) so if you don't have a great connection it is excruciatingly laggy and slow just to tell a ship to warp somewhere, and takes forever to send a ship over multiple jumps.
