How about this for a new module.

A passive module that detonates upon the destruction of your vessel.
Takes your pod out but also obliterates everything you had with you.

Perfect for those slow loaded trips to jita!

Looting is in the game on purpose.

Material sink + ganked tears + ganker tears = win all around.

Actually, I agree with this idea completely. If I wanted to discourage or render the efforts of Pirates/Gankers uselss I would definitely do this. In fact I'd have it so I could eject, triggering the even that caused the catastrophic destruction of everything on the ship in question.

Much better than having a secondary explosion wipe you out in your pod.

The point of the pod being lost is that it balances out the decision to use the module. Without the pod loss there is no reason a person wouldn't fit it on every ship with a spare slot. Could go a step further, chance to loose some skill like with a T3. You should be able to screw over the person who defeated/ganked you, but at a meaningful price. Since you can loose your pod anyway, something on top of just loosing the pod may be in order.
