After a star has gone nova, the links to any COMs in that system that are still in your cargo bay show as:
25 m3      Ship crew: combat contract (Talk) ->
5 m3      Tracker: The pirate's nest (Use) ->

Ship crews are "unaware" their system no longer exists, and prompt for you to pay the usual "abandonment" fine if not at Sol. It would be nice if this would just prompt for you to be able to remove them from cargo. It would be GREAT if it told you which SYSTEM it was that went nova.

Trying to "Use" a tracker gives the message:
Whoops! Something went wrong... please contact AG Support.

As a followup to the above, I tried to pick up a NEW COM in the area of the star that had gone nova and got:
==
Woops! There was a problem completing your request.
Please wait two seconds and try to refresh the page or click back and re-try your action.
This may only be a temporary problem caused by a database restart.

If the problem persists, please message e(#1) from the ingame mail system and it will be fixed.
Thank you,

I'm guessing that COM signals pointed at stars that no longer exist are not being removed?

"I can't take you there."

"What do you mean you can't take us there? This is unacceptable...

We will issue a complaint with [blah blah blah]"

... where's the "No sunshine, I CAN'T take you there cos yer f*cking star went kaboom!" button? 16
