This would be a wonderful thing. It is annoying when your missile ships retreat past your planet and the enemy destroys it in passing.
I'd request that this "defend planet" order allow the defendered to sally forth to engage the enemy, so long as it is keeping them at bay. I would hate for a suicide squad with orders not to attack ships to be allowed too close because the defenders cannot move from the planet.
This might be tricky, though, especially with multiple attacking forces.
