I didn't send, but something I thought about sending (as I was driving
home
from John's place--anyone else ever drive 190 miles (one way) for one
game?
And care to admit it?) which should get an Official Response (tm):

Vector Movement Modification Proposal:
Main Drive thrust and Thruster Pushes must be executed together; they
may
not be separated by a Facing Change.

  This is to avoid events such as: a Thrust 6 ship uses a Main Drive 6
burn
in direction 12; rotates to heading 3; and uses its two remaining
Thruster
points to Push to port; its total movement in direction 12 has therefore
been 8 instead of 6.  Next turn it could perform the same steps in
reverse
order, to end facing direction 12 again.
