You can control space-bar to stop your ship in space or abort warping.
Please allow it to abort undocking.
Many of us have muscle memory of this command to stop what movement we are in, and I find myself hitting control space-bar to abort an undock.

It should be a small thing to implement.

If there is a keyboard remap to this I am sure it will be pointed out. If that occurs: "Nothing to see here, move along". What?

There is a hotkey for undock. Does it not also abort undock?

It does not stop the undock process. You need to click on the arrow with the mouse to stop it.

I like the idea.

My ridicule, heavy criticism and general pale outlook about your or CCP's ideas is nothing but an encouragement to prove me wrong. Give it a try.

Good idea. My muscle memory has led me to try using CTRL+space to abort an undock on a number of occasions. The command isn't used for anything else when docked, so yeah, let's incorporate it to abort an undock.

Odd. I'd like to see that fixed then irrespective of the implementation of this idea.
