In fact there was a video of a Condor doing this. It was also suggested that perhaps at some future point, if/when Ambulation develops, that Corporations will be granted planetary domain in conquered systems. Your Corporation could/would be the governing entity of entire planets that have been colonized for the purpose of harvesting Tech III components ... or these planets/populations somehow influence industry and trade. Perhaps this would be an expansion on the Sovereignty Skill. Walking in station, if successful, may eventually develop to walking on planets. That could lead to a whole lot of wondrous "what if?" ideas. These could be probably the most innovative game expansion that no one else but CCP would have the balls or vision to pull off. Let’s not forget, World of Darkness is eventually coming. That is a MMORPG based on White Wolf’s personal horror fiction world that will definitely have Avatars and will be published by CCP. It is reasonable to suspect that the work being developed in the Ambulation Project for EvE will carry over into WOD, which will be set in a world similar to our own real world.

They could eventually include Ambulation as part of an agent mission. Or say, create mission that only happens within stations. The RPGers would have a field day giving out examples, but I don't think this would apply to the majority of the player base. It'll be interesting to see where this goes.
