I'd rather see just the reverse myself. If we could 'link up' multiple shipyards to work on a single project life would be much easier in the late game when you want to build starbases on warp points.

Be careful what you wish for. Wouldn't this make building ringworlds and sphereworlds easier?

Seriously, I think the whole reason we can't combine the output of multiple shipyards (unmodded game) is because the game designer's concept of shipbuilding didn't consider modular components that could be built at multiple yards. But, since I'm not a mindreader, this is just a guess.
