Supply usage for Stellar Manipulation

I didn't see a fix in the latest patch for the fact that Stellar Manipulation components don't use supplies like they're supposed to. Anyone have better information? Did I just miss it? It would be nice if it were fixed, as it would prevent some abuse of the Stellar Manipulation stuff...

In another thread, Nitram Ward suggested having the repair bays use supplies when repairing ships. But that would only work if MM has fixed the problem with supply usage outside of movement or combat.

I'm pretty sure I saw it. Paraphrase: "Ship must have enough supplies. If in a fleet, then fleet must have enough supplies and ship must be capable of carrying that many supplies."

That sounds like one of the rules from the TwinGalaxies contest, set up to prevent abuse of the SM stuff. Was that also in the patch?
