Repair ability fully stacks, so there shouldn't be a problem here.

Cool. I was worried that a simple game-mechanic was going to ruin what seems like a great idea.
Next issue would be balance. Something like this could make repairing large ships extremely cheap, which is fine if that's the effect you're going for. But in a mod like P&N  small armor pieces could be repaired so quickly as to unbalance the game. My suggestion would be to bump up the cost and/or move them up the tech tree.
Hey! How'd I wind up being devil's advocate?
