That's an issue for the fredder or weapons modder. My preference would be simply to use TAG missiles.

Here's an interesting thought for scattering flak, but I'm uncertain as to whether or not FSO can do this. If one could combine a flak cannon with a spawn ability, like the Psynaptic bomb. Basically, if would fire a large flak shell (which FS code renders with particles) which splits into about half a dozen standard flak shells, but uses PhReAk's directional spawning. Someone tell me if this is even feasable.

That is a good idea, and I think I know how to do it. It would have to be made as a missile. Make a Giant Bullet and make a "missile" in the TBL and change the explosion to the Flak explosion, then set the flag like you said a Psynaptic bomb and set where it explodes so many seconds later. You should end up with one big shell that explodes and releases a whole pile of flak explosions. :D
