[Freeciv-Dev] [bug #25355] Spies cannot steal techs

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #25355 (project freeciv):

> if we keep it

A late note: The motivation for the suppression was to keep the pre split UI
of tech theft and building sabotage. Having a separate button for the
untargeted actions (and removing the "At Spy's Discretion" option from the
target selection dialog) would result in simpler code. If it is a better UI
design too (something the confusion in this ticket may indicate) I have no
objection to changing it.

Hmm, right.
Industrial espionage is a bit misleading.

[Jacob Nevins]

Follow-up Comment #1, bug #25355 (project freeciv):

It looks like it's deliberately set up to suppress the STEAL_TECH action
("Steal Technology") in the top-level menu if TARGETED_STEAL_TECH ("Industrial
Espionage") is possible; you choose "Industrial Espionage" then "At Spy's
Discretion" to steal a random tech. (Works in Gtk3 and Qt at least.)

(The handwritten unit help could do with rewriting to refer to the action UI
names, and to acknowledge this UI behaviour if we keep it.)
