Tidal Distortion for Binary Star Systems

I went to a binary system with two super close stars and I was like, wait!
Shouldn't there be tidal distortion to binary stars near to each other, making them ellipsoids?
So I wanted to suggest this thing.
Is that a planned future feature? (Understanding it would take a lot of reworking of several elements like fuel scooping and gravity wells being non-spherical, non-trivial math!)

Thank you!
 
I think it's a thing for the future, but having properly modelled solar surfaces would be a very good thing. At the moment, it's a bit bare-bones, as I'm sure the devs are aware. Hopefully, we'll see improvements at some point.
