Please please ZOS, let us communicate with our companions and setup their gear, skills and whatever else via a new menu entry, but not a dialogue triggered by pressing "E".
There are so many reasons to press "E" every 10 seconds in this game, I can't stand it any more to be in my companions' dialogue box each time I simply loot or pick up some flower, and talk to an NPC. This is unbearable.
Being careful doesn't help. The companion has a "particular talent" at throwing him/herself between you and the target of your "E-Press" betwenn the key press and the actual action (and I don't have a high ping rate). Only option is to wait for the companion to stop moving before interacting with anything. Unearable and close to unplayable.
I LOVE companions, it's the best idea since sliced bread. I don't even mind when they stand in the way in pure Lydia-style. But please please please, take them away from the E-key. PLEASE.
