It's SO FRICKEN HARD to drop cargo from a behemoth while mining (flying slowly). It's like it's got a cargo magnet on it.

BTW, I love how it exits a port.

That's because when you drop cargo, it spawns from the center of the ship rather than the edge of the model, meaning that you can drop-and-pick-it-up really easily on big ships. That's probably a bug.

Yeah, just give it a 2-second "no-pick-up" delay and the problem will be solved.

Another idea that I liked was to give cargo a small velocity when ejecting it. Preferably with some kind of "friction" so that it slows down and stops before being forever lost.

ok, i fixed the jettison so it takes the radius of the ship into account. It doesn't look like the cargo is coming out of the rear port though.
