Spacewalks are a bad example anyway. A ship's artificial gravity could extend outside its hull. Conversely, the lack of spacewalks doesn't mean we aren't shown the absence of gravity, since we see the ships themselves maneuvering in a way that suggests a lack of gravity.

Gravity in SW is still kind of fucked, but not "gravity in deep space" fucked.
