Elite Dangerous - Combat Logging

Elite Dangerous - Combat Logging - Soldier Holding Black Assault Rifle

Is it still possible to combat log in the open world PVP side of the game? I noticed in the latest patch that they essentially added galaxy wide bounties, which is a great change. Would still be quite useless if players are still abusing the combat logging, has that ever been addressed?

Combat logging was when a player would hit ALT + F4 to quickly log out of the game just before death. It used to immediately despawn your ship, thus saving it.
