Yes, that's how I usually attack with cloaked ships now. What I was getting at was to be able to simply go to the same sector as the target, click the attack button and have combat initiate. As in you just decloaked within firing range of an enemy. Using the usual method, the game treats it as if you were making an attack with an uncloaked vessel and you are too far apart.
