Crash Research. Bug?

[LoBaron]

Ok today I hit the Jackpot. Both in tech and, well I should play in the lottery. [:D]

Ok back on topic:

Following situation:

I started crash research construciton yard tech to be able to build better ships. What I already noticed is that once you started a crash research program you cannot terminate
it until it is done.

And now to my problem (I am probably the only one playing for whom this turned out to be a problem [:'(])

A few weeks after I started the crash reasearch program I found some ancient ruins containing the super-hyper-advanced-construction-yard-of-my-dreams (or nightmare as far as my enemies
are concerned).
Now the bad news: I cannot stop my crash research program and what it does now is it researches the super-hyper-advanced-construction-yard-of-my-dreams MK 2
which would not be an economic thing to do even if my research output was 10 times as large as it is. I will probably finish my "crash" research program in 30 years.


So the question is:

Am I either: missing a feature to stop a crash research program
Or: is this a known or new bug and I have to live with it until the expansion comes out?


Thanks in advance for your help.
