In-system Jumping

I'd like the ability to jump directly to a secondary star in the system, based on a few rules.
First one being the secondary star needs to be 'distinguishable' from the primary.
Too close to the primary, or too low mass compared to the primary, and you can't do it.
FD are pretty good with formulas, so they can do that math.
Also too far, and you can't either. Just to keep Hutton Truckers happy ;)

You also will need to have scanned the secondary star before jumping directly too it.
So first timers need to make the trip, and scan the star.
Second time round, you can jump directly to.

Actually I like this idea. You have to do the long haul once, scan the secondary, tertiary or whatever with the DSS, you can then do an intra-system jump to that star thereafter.

A reasonable and believable mechanic, some effort required, another reason to carry a Det. surf. scanner and no PvP exploits.
