OK here's a solution similar to the SUBMIT in Interdiction idea...An opponent can Submit a fight by giving away whatever Bounty (their credits) would've been awarded to the attacker. Else they could even DROP CARGO if they wanted even more. The game would realise that if you were in a fight that you simply had no choice to unplug as your ship would still be connected to their server for another 60secs by doing that (so at risk of getting blown up without being there to even see it!)
