it would be kind of lame to fast-dock, when there is a boss raid going on...
Lucky for the game, fast docking is not working with the player on red alert. That makes that you can't cheat by fast docking yourself out of a difficult situation.
In that way you are right: if the main station allows it, why not the spacebars.
In regard to your screenshot on the first post my planets never look that good ingame, where was the screenshot taken if you can remember, and what version of oolite are you running ? any addons I should be aware of ?
One could add a chance of being fined when using the fast_dock option. Being fine is not always bad because your criminal record is cleared also. It is only bad when on a time sensitive trip.
It looks like someone already did this: the code comment from Jens suggests it's been in since at least 2008.

Sorry Dertien, can't remember what system I was passing through; I was just planning a pit stop at the Spacebar for some fuel.
I'm using the current release of Oolite v1.80.0

Please post your Rings tweak in the Tinkerer's Workshop thread.. I'm sure there are others who'd be interested in it as well.
Most games have some sort of paddling-pool-and-water-wings beginning to ease you in: Oolite takes the rather more Darwinian approach of heaving you straight into the ocean, often with a brick or two in your pockets for luck. ~ Disembodied
