In the same way, I believe that anyone with the access code would be able to use the gate. It's just a simple matter of beating up a civilian to get the codes of course. Simple as that.

Think something along the lines of PayPass, where you go down the Interstate and instead of having to stop at the toll booth, it reads the code off the thing in your windshield.
The way I understand it is that jump hole locations are supposed to be slightly variable, but the game mechanics don't let it happen. That, and with so many jump holes opening up inside things like asteroid fields or radiation fields, your basic (effectively) unarmed and unarmored civilian frieghter wouldn't use a hole.
