having a cut throttle key is as important as an autofire keybinding for a gunner while they can use the left mouse button.
its not usefull.

There is an autofire button: left click. :P

I've also been wondering about using macros to have specific sequences executed. For example I might write a macro to 180 power turn and use shift+p as my shortcut.  However I imagine people would consider this cheating.

Helmic:
It wouldn't hurt to have the option, despite how much people want to imply that they're awesome because they don't need it themselves.  It's not like they have to be bound by default, just allow people to bind the positions to keys if they wish.  Certainly makes it easier to play the game with unorthodox controllers.

Machiavelliest:
Thank you, Helmic

Supimpa:
A cut-throtle keybind could come in handy in some (rare?) occasions, for example: On a squid, it takes a lot of throtle fine adjustments to keep both back and side guns firing on the target at the same time, specially when the target is moving. The fact that you're looking back all the time (thus not seeing the throtle hud) makes it specially harder to acknowledge your current throtle status.

As long as it's not faster than setting the throtle to idle manually, it would be a good addition.
