Unit Area Reclaim

Unit area reclaim. Units inside the area are reclaimed if the order is given while mousing over a unit. Selected units are not reclaimed so more control is possible.
Personally, I'd rather just have it reclaim only the type you started the reclaim command with, unless it's an enemy unit. That is, if I click-drag-reclaim a windgen, I can drag the circle over my whole base to clear out all the windgens.
But if I click-drag-reclaim an enemy unit, I want it to reclaim all enemy units, I don't care what type.
http://spring.jobjol.nl/show_file.php?id=2048 a version with those features.

I made a slightly different version with unit type reclaiming and enemy reclaiming. Updated first post. Someone say if they want the first version with enemy reclaiming.

Great minds think alike. I was proposing this same idea to FatController a few days back. Hopefully we can take this widget an embed it as a gadget on the build bar.
