Technically you're still in 'normal' supercruise, so yes, it does spawn SSS/USS/WSS. As you say, perhaps it's possible to get a bit additional types of events while in orbit.

I had a similar thing happen with a disappearing medical convoy but was at a sss close to a planet at the time. I asked if anyone else had seen it but got burried in the threadnought. I was not in cruise, I was in the instance and literally watched them disappear in front of me. Bug or not it's weird.
What the..... i just got here in merope and got a really stragen bug/fenomena... when i get clos to the planet , it became PITCH black....
will up a video...

Yes, it happens almost everytime.
I followed my last convoy yesterday: first jumped in a close system, then in SC until it exited close to an outpost, then jumped again to another system, losing the escort completely, becoming a lone python. Exited again in front of a second outpost, then jumped to the first system again. I followed it towards another outpost, when it SUDDENLY DISAPPEARED from the scanner. It seem to do a round trip around 2 or 3 systems, then it disappears. I did it many times, and I'm stopping here.
They simply "wait" for you to pick their cargo. If you don't do it, they vanish. That's all.
Yes. Here you can find my complete collection of the MORSE alphabet the UA is using:

Further to my earlier post.
I found the following systems on the Galactic Map. They all have the star type: B7 IVa
And they are all relatively near a nebula - I plan on going out to each in turn, but if anyone is near any of these...
Rosette Sector DL-Y E0
Monkey Head Sector DL-Y E1
NGC 7822 Sector DL-Y E3
Seagull Sector BA-A E4
I did find 2 others but they had other stars in them.
Interesting facts.
Not all the Nebulas have Class B stars let alone B7 IV systems.
A lot of the B class star systems also had Neutrons and Black Holes in them - which is handy if you're looking for these.
There does seem to be a E number pattern. I wonder where xxx E2 is.

Graphical glitch, had similar incidents at several places myself within the bubble.
I've found both human-made like POIs, guarded by Skimmers, and USS/WSS and Wreckages very far away from the bubble.
The Coalsack is one of this places where SS spawns in SC. I've found many isolated systems, ~1000Ly far away from Sol, spawning SS.
I've entered a Wreckage and there was a System Authority Vessel there: Authority in a random unpopulated System.
So "immersion breaking" ...
I would like to think of some "secret operations" going on in these places. But... well... no.

Thank god...
you need some balls to go in a planet that dark...
Exploring this is not for the faint-hearted..
Nothing necessarily exciting, but thought I'd share...
Was out just past the Witch Head Nebula, on my way to Orion Nebula, brestroke my SRV through inattention (oops), had to head back to MAIA for restock
On the way back, I came across MU TAURI. Class B, and second planet is 2.79G, pretty hot, landable and 100% metal. It's also a Shell System. Have taken UA to planet (came in a little too hot...) and am sitting watching it purr in a crater.
Anyway, just thought it might be a useful planet to know as it's the first I've come across with high G, hot, 100% metal, B star and is shell planet.
Running long term observation of UA now, while trying to get the dents out of the landing gear... I might post the vid of the landing at some point just to amuse.

2 meters from the ground turn off the thrsters
BTW
More bad news for those trying to find the location of that base from the trailer.
The little nebula poking its head over the mountain range isn't the spinning top extra galactic one. Looked at the trailer frame by frame, at about frame 700 as the camera moves, the nebula pops out from behind the hill and it isn't the one we think it is from the other stills. With that gone and not really being able to determine which little nebula it actually is,,,and no other points of reference other than the general look of Bernard's Loop,,,
"It's dead Jim."
About the shell...
Has it always been the size it currently is? (130-150LY?) If not, is it expanding of contracting? Is the shell zone getting thicker/deeper?
Are UAs only found in the shell zone, or have they been found further inside or outside?
The only UA I've found was in the shell (~144LY), and I sat and looked at it for some time without touching it, and with the ship stationary. I want to see if it was drifting, but it seemed to be static. When I nudged it with the front of the ship, it reoriented towards Merope quite quickly (within 5 seconds, I'd say).
Just trying to get a handle on this shell, and on how the UAs form it. If they aren't moving, and if the shell isn't expanding or contracting, then that would suggest that they have been placed where they are, or moved to a position and stopped.

On the subject of green places, this was taken on Pleione 6, near Merope...
What struck me when I took that was that the sky looks a tad greenish. It was taken in daylight (I was there to look for rarer metals). Might be worth going back and checking it the dark side to see how it looks.

1.2 UA in Convoys going round the Bubble
1.3 UA free floating inside or very close to Pleiades Nebula (HR 1172, HR 1185 and other systems: see the Wiki)
1.4 UA in the actual shell (135-150Ly from Merope, and pointing to Merope), no more in 1.3 systems.
2.0 few days ago we found there are still UA convoys out there (HIP 15609).

But this one by a goliath and that was the first time it has happened. Now of course, i got killed by it (it has nasty missles) and so I could not see what it was guarding.
