No, what I am trying to suggest is having two separate IFF's. One for the docking ring, that operates exactly how it does now, and another IFF for the planet - if it is possible to dock with the planet and not just the ring, and only when using freighters and below.
That would mean that even if you've been FR5'ed, you can dock with planets in a smaller ship. In-rp it would be entering atmosphere somewhere unguarded to land outside of space ports to unload smuggled goods. Since it's only for smaller ships, it won't break trade balance.
I'm not sure if that could be accomplished without adding on another flhook to the server. However, it could probably be done just like how leeds was given the second docking ring that only allowed freighters and below.
I really like that idea though if it isn't too much of a hassle to put in.
