Why is this discussion continuing?
The improved system scanning in Kali will make it possible to scan down (but not uncloak) cloaked ships.
What more is needed?
Becuase you don't need to be able to scan down cloaked ships.
Yes you do. Nobody in eve should ever, ever be invincible. Cloak + Safespot currently means invincibility, so its getting nerfed. Ive also been pointed to some rather nifty Cosmos items (I think) which work like a smartbomb but have large (18 - 22K I think) range and decloak ships. Look neat :)
you can dock and be invincible. would you like forcing undocking also? or maybe in-station rockets...

Sorry, yes docking should be the only time you are safe. I always hear people saying "You arent safe anywhere" in threads where people are whining about losing 20trillion zydrine in their T1 hauler in Jita. Well cloakers ARE safe, and while it shouldnt be EASY to find them, it should be possible.
why?

The fitting of one modules makes a person pretty much invulnerable to anything the enemy can throw at them. If that isnt unbalanced I dont know what is.
so? you dont need any module whatsoever to dock and be invulnerable.
people fitting cloak devices are already giving up a lot of things for it.

Ya, but you can be *found* when you are docked. People know where you are. They know you aren't spying on their mining op waiting to spring a login trap. They know you aren't just sitting waiting to jump on someone at a gate. They can keep an eye on you and worry about you when you leave.
Cloaking lets you shut down a system because nobody wants to risk a trap, and they can't get back to what they want to do because cloaks are 100% unfindable.
mmm... true... solution: nerf local
this way you dont know if there is someone cloaked or not, and you can have your mining op just fine
