Traversing planets in sub-light speed

from Sins Forums
Hey guys, not sure how it happened but I just ran into a rather odd bug. I ordered a colony frigate to jump to a planet for colonization from one of my worlds. I looked back a min later to see it hadn't gone far. I zoomed in to see that the ship had left the gravity well and was not in phase space. It was travelling somehow in sublight speed to the other planet (which needless to say took forever). I haven't been able to replicate this bug again, but I was wondering if anyone else ran into this.
Also, I was also thinking this could be an interesting feature if it were implemented as an option. Possibly a way of escaping jump inhibitors, or even sneak attacking an enemy.

This is the first time something like this has been reported that I'm aware of since the beta started.

@Mul - your right. I thought your post was only about leaving the GW hunting trade ships and not about leaving while not in phased space.
