Default Small suggestions for the next patch

Hi!
I am pretty new to Dominion 3 but I did notice some things that could be done to make the player's life a little easier (and sorry if I bring up things that were discussed a hundred times here, I did read a lot of threads, but not all of them, so just don't hit me ):

1. An "infinite recruit" setting/button to the army recruit screen of the dominions
Sometimes it can be very time consuming, when you have to go to every province to recruit your troops at every turn, especially if you have a lot of dominion.
It would help to reduce the micromanagement a lot, if you could just set some to train the maximum troops that can be trained there at the begining of every turn

2. Some graphical representation of some important values in the game
I noticed that when I check the dominions for their income or population, it takes a lot more time to "decode" the numbers, that are there, then it was in, well, in Master of Magic.
There when I clicked around the cities, I could immediately tell, if I get a low or high income from it, just by waching the gold coins.
If there were something like that in Dominions, like, a gold coin for every 50 gold income next to the accurate number, you could get the feeling about the more and less important dominions much quickly.

3. A dismiss command to release the not needed soldiers from their duty
I don't think that needs any explanation, I think everybody met that situation, when you got stuck with "once so important but now so useless" troops, like an undead elephant (behemot), that don't let you use its summoner's magic, or a lot militia after a large, "I need as many man as possible" - fight.

4. Something to help me sort out the spells
Well, as I said, I am a pretty new player, so everything is new to me. And when I saw the spell research/ritual casting/spell library window, I nearly cried. There was like, a ton of spells, but I needed to ckeck them one by one, if I wanted to know, if a specific one is casted on the battlefield, or it is a ritual, if it is a ritual, it is a summoning spell or an enchantment, thing like that.
Please, just let me sort them by type, cast level, or gem need. It will really could make it easier to find a spell for a specific job.


So, that's it.
I know it is nothing serious, but sometimes, these thing could add up, and become very annoying.
And I will continue to play, because it is a fun, even if sometimes very time consuming game
