Suggestion - Less tedious mining with a fighter

Just a thought,
I mine with my Cutter most of the time and have my fighter out on defense picket duty. I usually blast away till the asteroid is depleted and let my limpets scoop things up. I'd like to be able to swap to my fighter and zoom around while this is happening but every time I do my AI pilot dutifully buttons up the ship and closes the cargo hatch so my poor little limpets just sit there instead of collecting. Is there anyway to change the AI pilot behavior in a situation like this?

p.s. thanks in advance for consideration and any salt that comes my way lol
