Eject/Escape pod button?

Unless I have missed something (entirely possible;) there seems no way to abandon ship and the escape pod. Having run out of fuel and had my proverbial rear end handed to me on a plate a few times. I find it frustrating having to wait for the O2 to run out or the assailant to finish me off. I remember (having used it many many times) in the original Elite having such an option available. Could we have a similar option incorporated into the new version please.
