Just an FYI for your peace of mind: I did almost exactly this with my current (not so advanced game) and it worked fine. No need to even start a new "sacrificial" game if you don't want to. A current game will load fine for the "suicide" after you patch. Of course, that assumes you are playing a "Perma-Death" game with "Pay It Forward!". Just push all your funds into the PIF balance and start a new game. Don't forget though, even if you push everything into PIF and use it all in the new game, you only get one-half the total. (The Bankers take the other half, per the manual.)

Sorry - possible bug in 1.1.0
Just loaded the patch and started a new game on "Medium". In both sectors 3 and 4, I completed a "Banker Delivery" quest. It said that I received some credits and a new piece of equipment (in one case a spacesuit and in the other a shield). However, there was no new equipment in my cargo space or equipped on my ship/team. I will continue on and see if this is true of all quests that say I get a new gadget.

Belay that, I tried it again and saw that the message I thought was giving me equipment was actually describing the delivery package - all I got was money. So -- no problem.
