Hm, reading through all the answers, I think I find it harder now to really decide.
The proposal would also benefit groups who want to play together but can't because the ships are spread all over the place. I guess most factions that cooperate know the problem: "Hey, let's fly." - "Sure, where are your ships?" - "Ehm... not where we are." - "Daymn!"
What I really fear is that it would cause fights to become even worse than they are already.
Imagine EVERYBODY could get there in time.
No one would say: "Ah... forget it. 6 systems. I'll pass this time."
I'll change my vote from "No" to "Undecided".
Have to think about it more.
