Using eg. some sort of deployable console that converts raw materials into hull and module health, powerplant included (as you can shut it down and work on it from the outside).
This would be a blessing for explorers out in the black, for example when you just can't stand to look at power plant not being at 100% health, or when you survive an involuntarily lithobrake and really don't want to jump all the way to a nearest station/FC, but would rather sacrifice your raw materials.
This would increase self-sufficiency and immersion but make DSSA and carriers less relevant - at least until they hopefully get the option to install Vista Genomics.
