I've only heard of people using it to speed the game up, so it was of no interest. Now something that could slow everything in the game down just a bit would be interesting! Not a lot, mind you. But if it went 20-25% slower as soon as the warning klaxon goes off and things go to red, it could add some neat feel of focus and suspense.
Because aiming is SO much easier at low game speeds, I use it on occasion. In my defense, I'm using the keyboard on an old computer that often has framerates in Oolite below 20 fps.

I suppose we're never going to have everyone happy. Some people complain about how long it takes to do stuff, others feel things move too fast.

Personally, I like things a bit slower to help the illusion of the ships being big and powerful and space being vast..
Well put. Better than I could ever say it :D
