I 
have no problem with the occasional dense debris field of some sort for 
story purposes or just plain dramatic effect.

I didn't say it was exciting, just realistic.
If you want exciting, go right ahead.  You could say that you're chasing
someone through a jovian's trojan points, or you find a meteor swarm or
comet that's split up.	Of course, most asteroids are small enough that
you'd have a hard time hitting them, if they're in the 1mu=1000km scale.

If you want a little more diversity, you could add Herbig Haro objects,
pulsars, black holes...
