Wow than if this sounds "horrible" than you have no taste in fun whatsoever.
Define "fun".
"Fun" Is different depending to the person

What other people said: currently open world thing is not possible due to the fact that some stuff is hard-coded in the executable file.
On the other hand, I think that it would be cool if FTL took some more inspiration from Space Rangers series. Exploration was much more non-linear in the latter, but there still was a danger of the sector being overrun by hostiles. The goals of the game were pretty similar (get powerful and kill the boss), but you had so much freedom to explore and approach your objetive. Yeah, would be great to see this kind of thing in FTL.
