This is more of a code architecture issue. Once something has left the aircraft, it ought be be handed to a simple "ballistics FDM" or somesuch. Making it "disappear" from the aircraft model is as simple as adding a select animation and can be done right now. And you can set the weight tag to zero to get the FDM behavior correct. Running it under a separate "FDM" handler is something that the C++ code just doesn't support yet, though. It's probably not hugely difficult to make work, though.
