We see a lot of these recently, are they useable for actual space propulsion? I could see this as a way to potentially pack higher density fuels into rockets in this game.

Or for that matter solid fuel rockets. If we can toggle whether or not to use gimbal, then we are already able to make unguided rockets. Allowing us to use solid fuel would be a great way of maximizing the potential cost savings.

While we are at it, hypergolic bipropellant rockets would be nice, if you want something cheaper than fluorine hydrogen or fluorine methane but with better performance than nitromethane.

would definitely be nice to have a bipropellant resistojet: Resistor element vaporizes and pressurizes the fuel, then the fuel is combusted to release the chemical energy and further expand it in the bell.

I think this is why Decane Resistojets are so amazing; decane disassociates, then the resulting molecules dissasociate further.
