A very small suggestion but one that I think would be worthwhile. In every other case pressing F when a window is open (dialogue box or whatever) closes said window (at least in a lot of cases) but with crafting stations it simply closes it y and then reopens it again very quickly.
Could it be made to close the window like everything else.
PS: Also, take that spoiler out of the hints for forum posting! And old movie doesn’t make spoiling it any less of a deal! :P
