You could even have things like allowing sats and bases to have 1 combat MP but no strategic MP, which usually would help with planetary defense.

You can do that now, at least with bases. See the Devnull mod, or my mod (Derek's Mod Gold) for an example. Basically, you can have whats called a 'Station Keeping Engine' which gives a base one or two (or more, if you like) combat only movement points.

You can't do it with satellites, however. Dats are hardcoded to have no movement. What would make me happy is if the sats weren't all in one group, but split up into three or four Groups around a planet, so every quadrant is covered
