That question is directed at me, even if you don't know it:P

1) It's possible to make the player fighters go spinning and then go boom, but it's not possible to disable player controls - they could spam missiles, mines, torpedoes and those would still hurt. <strike>I know no solution to that, apart from dropping ammo right at the start of the sequence, but that would mean a high chance for the loot to be destroyed by accident by the ship's explosion or subsequent hits by explosives (and it would screw up the usual behaviour a bit).</strike> It's even possible the spinning wouldn't work at all when a player is in control of the ship, like the Rolls (I didn't test this part).
Edit: As Hribek pointed out, the spamming thing can be solved by destroying the weapons, that's the most effective way.

2) It is one size fits all, but it would still require additional work on each and every ship affected

3) It would mess up the kill messages

4) It would mean a lot of work for me for little actual effect; the current behaviour is perfectly fine - vanishing battleships seemed a little odd, but there's nothing wrong with the way fighters explode. I'll be adding death sequences to transports, but most probably not to fighters.
