That doesn't overcome the main problem for setting the destination the the home port. I'm wrong here, it does. Setting 'remain on staion' does two things, it clears the destination and sets the ship to 'do not retire'. I'll have to wait until next turn to see if clearing the destination actually leaves it in the hex.

I have a better idea. Could we get rid of the new port unload rules?

Seriously!

If the original task force screen is showing (viewing tf) there is a "create new tf" button on top right. If you use that button it will keep all the same settings as the tf that is showing on the screen. Remember to make any changes needed after creating.
