Wouldn't it make sense after being on Mars for a while, a rocket pad would be made? Maybe have a refinery directly attached that refuels the rocket? Plus I think it would look a lot cleaner than a black burnt mark on the ground.

As i seen in video's, the rocket landing and starting makes nearby buildings dirty. maybe it would be a bonus, if the landing pad is somehow walled and prevent the spreading dirtyness of other buildings. ^-^
I've been using the terrain from depleted concrete deposits, and surrounding it with concrete storage to make walls. Then using those as landing pads.
Would definitely subscribe to a mod that implemented actual launch pads though. Would also be nice to make roads, even if it was just visual.

If the skirt of the landing pad was the same size as the cloud of dust it throws up, I would be all for that. That's what I want one for, to mark off the dust area and get rid of the black splotches on the ground.
Maybe something that looks and works like the waste rock patch (without accumulating waste rocks).
This is what I'm mainly waiting for. Would be really nice to have some proper walls and fences. The way I make my roads is 3 tiles wide with a power cable in the middle tile. I have also implemented the same strategy for walling off my landing pads.
Looking at the artbook it appears there was an earlier version of the fuel depot that had a landing pad. It's possible that the developers plan on adding a landing pad feature/building in the future but who knows?
There is a (partially complete) Entity in the game files for a Launchpad with attached fuelling rig. However, it'll need a lot of work to turn it into anything usable. I may well attempt this as I learn more about modding the game.
