[Alternate Flight Control] Throttle Binding

[Brian of Ardagh]

This is a really minor QoL modification I'd like to see added: the addition of throttle control to the alternate flight control section of the control bindings.

There's already a throttle/thrust control binding section for flight landing overrides, I'd like to see the throttle and/or thrusters added to the alternate flight control section so that throttle mode and/or controller input could be changed with the push of a selected button or keypress. Since the flight landing override already has this option when the landing gear is down, it should be relatively simple to add this option to the alternate flight control section of the bindings.

If anyone reading wonder's why, I have a throttle without a detent. I prefer to use it in forward only most of the time and don't mind pressing the reverse button on occasions. I would prefer, mostly in combat, to switch to full-range so that the center of the throttle is 0% thrust and I can go from full reverse to full forward.

Long time lurker, first time poster. Joined explicitly to say that I, too would like this. I have the x56 kit from Saitek, and I have the ministicks on the throttle and stick bound to landing flight controls, so that I can finely control forward/back thrust during landing. When salvaging or mining I find that I'm often dropping my landing gear to use these same forward/reverse throttle bindings to get better control over movement during scooping. Being able to simply push a button on the stick to drop into this mode without dropping my landing gear and cutting overall ship performance would be GREATLY appreciated.
