AI Flight max thrust

Running a drone for a long time tends to burn its power/fuel with excessive thrust. Can you add an override option to thrusters that limit what an AI can do with that thruster?

What I mean is when a drone is on a planet you do not want to limit what down thrust is going to be but lateral thrust you might want to force the AI to do smaller adjustments instead of full power thrusts, same with downward, in full space you might want it to limit breaking thrust on a long trip so the ship isn't wasting energy/fuel in trying to stop itself while flying 40km. Given that actions can be assigned to timer blocks this can be changed automatically,

I picture there is an option on each thruster/thruster group that has a slide bar that limits AI access to thrusters to use X of max thrust. Just a thought on how to give more control of thrusters without needing to mess with the AI itself.
