Saving ship designs, research plans

[derb]

Of course one must always be prepared to adapt research plans and ship designs to circumstances but shouldn't it be possible to load one's normal ship designs somehow? (or is it already possible?) They could then become visible as the tech that they require becomes available. You could also load your default tech research strategy.

I was reminded of this when I was asked whether I wanted to save my designs with my race. I realised that since the race creation happens before ships can be designed it could only be talking about the picture files (right? How does that work anyway?)
