Teleporting while docked succeeds but fails

I am working on the Cobolt and Copper bulk mining mission. I docked at the station and let my ship charge up. When I checked the map, I could select Vallis Reach and select Fast Travel. The timer runs, the cut scene plays, but then I am quickly returned to the station view. No error message, no pop-up message nothing. See attached video.

I assume this is because the ship is docked and is blocked from teleporting. If this is the case, then Fast Travel should be disabled. A warning dialog might be nice if someone selects another station while docked. It could say something like "Fast travel not allowed while docked."

The other option would be to let the player select it, then pop up a warning message either before or after the countdown. That could use the same message. Something like, "SAFETY HAZARD DETECTED. Fast travel not allowed while docked." Maybe make the SAFETY HAZARD DETECTED in bold red letters.
