Astronaut Complex and VAB add custom tabs

[kpdavatar]

I have Active 45 Kerbals and 18 tourists
14 Pilots
12 Engineers
19 Scientists
trying to keep track of them is a mess

Suggest to add custom tabs in Astronaut Complex and VAB to
group crews and sort Kerbals

In Astronaut Complex
====
Example: Create Tab names Red Dwarf
check Crew Tab (Note not a sort tab)

Check boxes by each Kerbal
Select
Dave Kerman
Rimmer Kerman
Cat Kerman
Kryton Kerman

In VAB I can now see a tab with Red Dwarf and click it for the Crew.
Shows
Dave Kerman
Rimmer Kerman
Cat Kerman
Kryton Keman
====
Example 2:
Create tab named Pilots
Check Sort tab (Not a crew)

Option to check which Kerbals are in the list

Check Boxes to show:
Available
Assigned
Missing

Check Boxes to show:
Pilot
Engineer
Scientist
Tourist

Check Boxes to show:
Male
Female

Check Boxes to show:
0 stars
1 star
2 stars
3 stars
4 stars
5 stars

Veteran

Courage

Stupidity

----

Select Pilot
Select
0 stars
1 star

In VAB if I click tab Pilot it will show all Pilots
with 0 or 1 stars

===

Tabs can be created for Scientists

Tabs for Engineers

Tabs for Tourists

This would make it easy to find match Kerbals to missions

Just a suggestion.

Just being able to sort Kerbals by type and experience in the AC or crew selection panel of the editors would be enough for me. Courage and stupidity make little difference (except for their facial expressions in flight, apparently) and while custom groups would be nice it would also be more work than using existing parameters to add filter and sort functions.
