Currently, the Quick-Use feature on the planets page only displayes three artifacts, as far as I'm aware. I'd like to see more added, such as the Temporal Flux Orb, and Spy Probe - Governance.

I really do wanna +1 this, however people in this game have butterfingers daily, Dan is gonna get so inundated with messages of;

"Dan, i accidentally used a temporal flux orb on my planet when i meant to use a flux probe".

I'll give the spy-probe governance a +1, but imo the temp-orb is a -1.

I thought someone would bring that up.

How about a confirmation message then? Sorta like the message you get when you use a Magnetosphere Charger, the little option box thingy that pops up. All you have to do is click the checkbox, then okay -- Foolproof. :P

The biggest problem with confirmation boxes is that people get annoyed by them and get in the habit of just clicking through them (without reading what it is they are clicking okay to). Especially if they appear too often and for common-place things. Confirmation boxes should be reserved for when really bad things could happen. They should not be used for things you do all the time.

I do like the idea of having more special use artifacts available. Perhaps having a way to set a default one to use or having more space between the artifacts may help reduce the amount of mis-clicks that may occur.
