UPD: I just learnt we already have "Back/Forward" hotkeys. So this suggestion is not really actual, because "Back" will already do what I described here.

TL;DR

Add a hotkey to quickly open remote view at the last location.

What?

Add hotkey to quickly reopen remote-view at the last location (and with the same zoom) after it has been closed.
I would make it Tab by default. So, it would be two separate actions: "Open map", M (open remote-view at current location), and "Open last view" - Tab.

Why?

It is a very common case for me to just temporarily close remote view to make something "live", and then return back to where I was remotely. Currently we have to do a tedios work of first reopening the view, then chosing the planet/platform, and then scrolling to the desired location. Besides, remote-view can be closed unintentionally as I described in another suggestion by reflectively hitting ESC to open the menu: viewtopic.php?f=6&t=120654 Such hotkey will effectively revert the annoyance from accidentally closed view.
