* Show ship name;
* Show ship name when hovering over the image;
* Breadcrumbs;
* Naming of external links, (see shipid).
class [Required] [bl]: Class the ship belongs to. This info can be found in-game on the ship info. It is in the header, after the ship name, in parentheses (see table Ship classes). Used for:
* Excluding (special edition) shuttles from the external EVE Workbench link;
* Determine the (default) number of rigs (in combination with tech);
* Determine the (default) rig size;
