Bug Description
Converted from blueprint:
Request addition of a line in constellation settings to represent the plane of the solar system (not the ecliptic), which is a line projected on the heavens through the solar equator. In addition, request a similar line drawn to reflect the barycenter (center of mass) of the solar plane, also known as the Laplace plane (see wiki). Both are used by amateur astronomers searching for undiscovered orbiting bodies, as the assumption is often that the majority of orbiting bodies in our solar system lie near these planes. My apologies if I made this request incorrectly.

I regard blueprints as the better wishlist entries, why convert to a wishlist bug?
How would this look like in practice? A small circle at the distance of Jupiter? A plane drawn as grid? A narrow ellipse that extends to the viewport borders?
