Please bring back old mouse steer controls as an option!

At the moment mouse steering feels like an awkward cross-breed between Free Look and the old Mouse Steering.
When the ship is idle it's annoyingly difficult to adjust it's heading - you must press movement keys to activate the automated controls that steer the ship towards your point of view.
I hope this will be addressed by the end of the beta as it is a huge deal-breaker for me.

Also with the new hyperjump system there needs to be a way to clear jump coordinates, as having coordinates set in prevents you from using boosters in the direction of the jump point.

+1 from me!

 

Edit: IF YOU HAPPEN TO READ THIS... Yes, there is now an option to re-enable the old method.  This was added after this feedback post was made.  As such, this is now OLD and there is no need to comment further!

Have you tried the option called "Always Turn Ship", in the Controls menu? It enables the old way of functioning for the Mouse Steering mode.
