This would be very useful.

It would also be useful if there was the option for your point of view to immediately snap back to forward view (or whatever) as soon as padlocked targets are no longer visible.

I've nearly had heart attacks when I've been making attack run against a padlocked ground target and my point of view follows the target as it passes under my wings and behind me, when I really want my point of view to be forward as I pull out of my dive and maneuver to avoid flak.
