Surface ship throttles

I just had a quick look at RA after being on hiatus from subsims and noticed I could keep the FFG running along at a nice 21 knots at 1/3 throttle setting (like 60% power, 60% pitch or something) and thought that must mean either a bug or more functionality in the game. I think in 1.04 even the throttle setting was just another way of setting the speed.

Are throttles now something I should be managing? (As opposed to just setting the speed in the bottom right corner?)
