I've updated the Service Module colliders, but results have been mixed. It may be that some parts have bounding boxes that are too big to be used with SDHI.
Not much I can do on my end I'm afraid.
Users have reported that the issue is absent (or at least less severe) in the V1.9 version of the Service Module.
After reverse-engineering the V1.9 model, I took out the convex colliders in the upper ring of the Service Module, thus (mostly) reverting the surface attachment to the behaviour seen in V1.9, but keeping the umbilical.
User feedback seems to be promising, but I'm waiting for further data.
Further feedback from users:
I think it's safe to say that this has (finally) been fixed to everyone's satisfaction.
A number of users have observed that, when surface-attaching parts such as solar panels and RCS thrusters onto the smaller-diameter fuselage of the Service Module's propulsion segment, said parts sometimes align with the wider avionics ring segment instead, leading to the illusion of parts "floating" a distance from the Service Module.
This was first observed in the transition from 0.25->0.90, and I suspect it may have something to do with the Service Module colliders (or possibly how KSP handles collider physics).
