It would be VERY neat if there was some sort of addon that could hack into a ship's mainframe and fuck things up. This would also open up anti hacking addons, so that'd be cool.

No, absolutely not. Fake magic "hacking" is disgusting. Unless it is a realistic process based on actual hacking skill, this idea should be ground up into a fine powder and sprinkled over a vat of raw sewage in a processing plant somewhere.

Automatic "hacking" devices should be limited to specialized brute-forcing computers for opening doors on stations and capships so that you can invade FPS style. But not "this magic box will let me reverse his lateral thrust controls lololol" type devices.

You could hire hackers.

There are hundreds of better improvements in the queue. Forget "pseudo-hacking-mini-game-to-fish-newbies"
It does make sense, and was already proposed some times to have something similar for Cappie/ConqStations capture.
