I think this should work, but only if a GPS is input as a destination, or ealse people will just set it to max range and let the ship jump till it runs out of power. Which could be a very long time. A player needs to be close to the jumping grid anyway, as othervise it will not work.

There is multiple ways to handle this:

- As of right now, if a JD is set with a beacon or GPS it will always try to jump there, it will not blind jump unless manually removed. It can only blind jump if it is in blind jump mode, AKA if the blind jump is intended

- An action similar to the rotor/piston "exectute" command could be used with 3 params+label that would be the GPS target to manually set the jump target

- Program API opening could enable both easily
