No. Only Piece projectiles were affected by that change.

False.

Missiles (and starbusts) recalculate their own speed every frame.

Does that mean that my request can already be done without engine support?

For the most part, that depends on how well you can put the following pieces together:

Maybe they should be adjusted so when a SetProjectileVelocity call is done on them they adjust their calculation parameters for it?

I dunno if I got it right but here is what I was thinking about:
The plane builds a unit (missile) which is selfdestructable. So when the unit (missile) is build it would move a little along the y-axes and then move to the target and selfdestruct when reached the target.
