It isn't a matter of taste, it is a matter of making the game better.

It will certainly make strategic combat better.
Tactical combat would be hit hard, if not removed altogether.

Although, if instead of jsut play and pause, you had a "step forward" button that would leave the game paused, but move it a head some minimum amount of time, it would effectively become turn based in tactical... Seeing the missiles and torpedoes and beams paused in mid-flight would be pretty cool too
