Feedback and Suggestions / Chemical Spray

With the removal of flamethrowers ability to pass through ships i think chem spray can afford to be nerfed and would like to see it targeted at one of my least favorite aspects - spraying everything repeatedly in circles before so much as looking at the enemy.
Therefore:
Remove the ability to refresh chemical spray before it expires, either by stopping the timer from resetting or in the extreme by preventing chemical spray from being applied at all to already sprayed components. Some tweaking to the numbers could be added on top of this.
I imagine at least that rather than risk being left with a < 5s chemical spray duration at the start of a fight if blindly pre-chemming, engineers would instead have to chose how early to apply it - balancing the amount of time before you have to re-apply in combat against the risk of getting burnt early - somewhat of an exciting mad dash to get everything covered before the heat goes on.
