I like this idea a lot.
And I can't think of anything bad about it. But I'll offer an alternative: See, the real problem is with finding the star gate, or whatever object you have selected and wish to align to, in the heat of battle. CCP could solve this problem by making it a lot flashier and easier to see.
Often the object you've selected in the Overview is somewhere behind your view. Then, a little box, or arrows, or something appears at the edge of the screen, telling you which way to turn your view to find them. But these boxes, or arrows, or whatever they are, aren't very easy to see, even when you know they are there somewhere.
A third option could be to add a "flare" choice to the right-click menu, so that briefly the object you've right-clicked on lights up brightly, or if it is not in the view then the correct side of the screen lights up brightly and then 1.5 seconds later the object itself lights up brighty (based on the assumption that the player will probably have spent those 1.5 seconds on rotating his view).
It is all about an user-friendly interface. Something which, I'm sad to say, CCP aren't particularly dedicated to.

It beats double clicking manually to align, and isn't going to accidentally just select the object when you don't have time to fiddle around.

Agreed times a million. It's incredibly irritating that I can't approach something just because I'm 200km away, too. Warping when inside 150km obviously shouldn't work but there's no reason at all for approach not working when outside 150km. This was introduced in some patch and people didn't seem to notice so it stuck.

...and when the broadcast is given to align to an object, it should also be right-clickable with an 'Align To" option.

this seems like alot of people that panic, fondle the mouse and spin the camera around looking for where to run whenever they get shot at. Just turn the camera and double click. Its not rocket science.
What about when you hover the mouse over a planet with about 30 moons. Does it list all the moons and the planet and the stations for you to align to? Your screen is going to fill up with a list, your going to have to sort through until you get to the one you want, then your going to have to right click allign to instead of accidentally clicking warp or some other random option. And by then I've shot you and am laughing whilst i pick through you loot. And im not a pirate, I'll just blow you up coz I know your going to be even more of a dear caught in headlights trying to align to what u want.
Just turn the camera and click, thats it.

At the end of the day, a double click is the same as align too. Dont see why it shouldt be implemened. Would prevent alot of 'fumbling' when trying to enjoy the game, instead of fraustration becuase all your corpies are waiting for you. Not only that but would also mean you wouldnt have to pan the camera round to try and find the object, just select from overview/right click menu.
(Also, it might also be useful to those who have dexterity problems)
