Perhaps, for a feature request, we could have the ability to select a particular planet as the primary and the program transfers the controls to it. So rather than the camera moving in reference to planet01 it moves around planet02. I know I always have problems with camera positioning around secondary planets, especially when the camera starts banking instead of turning round.
Figured out how to do clicky signatures

You can select an "orbit point" using the controls in the 3D preview, and thus change your camera orbit point to anywhere you would like (even an imported object). Just click the little Eye icon at the bottom of the 3D preview toolbar then click your desired orbit point in the 3D preview. From then on camera rotations should be about the selected point.
