Regenerative Shielding

It seemed likely to me that at some point (maybe a very long way away) some fed ships with regen. shielding might be introduced. If they are, how exactly might they work in the context of the game? Shields in FO regen. much faster than they do in the shows (which is understandable), but since regen shielding is supposed to be a big deal it would have to work several times faster than that, but then some of the weaker ships would actually be incapable of individually damaging the ship, which wouldn't be realistic or balanced. Of course, maybe ships like the prometheus will never make it into FO in which case i'm just wasting everybody's time...But if they are: any thoughts?

i could think of regenerative shielding as a special ability, increasing regeneration for lets say 2 minutes or something

Sweet! So, does that mean it will definitely make an appearance in FO someday?

The Sovereign would be a good ship to have it.
