I second that!!!
Since we get a bonus on crew missions depending on the influence, it is senseful to use the companions with the highest influence leves for crew missions, but with so many companions (and likely becoming more), the list is way to confusing.
How about this, since we talk about crew missions: allow us to pick our ship crew from the companions list. Only those companions are then shown on the crew missions list! (BTW, it would be nice to have them placed on the ship as well, it's rather empty there now...).
