I don't know how it would be used and for what it could be used for... but it could be an interesting/funny way to have an in-game mail system.

Maybe there's a Thargoid inside

EDIT: ah nevermind, I thought it was the garbage can with Rimmer's aliens

I want to get mail! I usualy on long trips it is only way to delver massage to me in game. But idea of some post floating in the space is a bit strange, i think navigation beacons can perform function of such posts by transfering masseges to nearby ships. Or even notice me if i get packege and where i get take it. Very usefull.
