Auto Pilot

Doubt this is possible, but it'd be nice if a mod can change the distance that the auto pilot kicks in when docking. It seems to activates when you're around 900m from the destination and then proceed to take, on average, 2 freaking hours to finally get to the dock and go in. I'd say 100m to 200m is plenty safety enough. It's not like you're actually gonna die in a firey explosion if you hit that door or anything.

You can sorta do this on your own. Just "goto" the docking area, you will automatically stop about 80 m or so from the target. Or you can manually fly closer before requesting docking permission (recommended if being chased). Or the last option dock, but afterburn til the navcomp locks your controls (about 800m or so though at this point you are only 1200m or so from the station anyways). Just be careful about other ships, got bumped out of the docking queue once and into the hanger of a station.
