Original forum post describing the problem:

Possible solutions:

  1. Disallow detaching parts grabbed by the graplers with MODULE [ModuleGrappleNode].
  2. Force release the part by the grappler after it has been detached via tools.

The forum's link doesn't give any concrete post.

In general, detaching from a docking port works bad in KIS since ports have active scripts on the connection. ModuleGrappleNode is just a special case of this issue. A generic way of stopping port's script needs to be found.

Handling of the docking nodes has been improved dramatically. However, it could not fix this particular issue. Feel free to re-open when more details are available.
