Aesthetics & Some Conveniences

[GEPODU]

First, I think it would be cool if there were faction-specific flight suit designs with which we could fit our CMDRs. Also, more design choices in general would be nice, perhaps some less gender-neutral suit designs.
Also, I would love some more feminine, ship nameplate designs for us female CMDRs.
My final aesthetic suggestion, is that I would love to have some potted/hydroponic plants I could place in my ships for some greenery!
On to gameplay suggestions, I would love to be able to use the "Swap" option in ship outfitting, to switch out modules between my ship & stored modules, as this would be far more efficient than having to manually store a module, then go back into storage to equip the other, stored one.
Another suggestion, is to set the default controller bindings in the SRVs to be the same as in the ships'. As it sits presently, it is really confusing going between the two.
Finally, I would love to be able to enter little notes or labels for my bookmarks in the Galaxy Map.
This game is amazing, thank you!

Aesthetics:
1: I love that idea! Maybe the factions could have their custom designs and use the color scheme to identify the rank. EG: Federation uses blue/gold design, adds gold to uniform based on rank.
2: Another layer of customization is certainly welcome, do you have any ideas for designs?
3: A background hydroponics could prove to be an interesting addition. Perhaps this idea could be expanded upon by adding a fish or reptile tank?

Gameplay:
1: I'm not currently in or near a station, so I can't confirm this, but if I remember correctly, it is possible to swap on-ship items with in-storage items using the "transfer" option.
2: I personally use a Logitech 3D Pro joystick for my primary controller (plus my keyboard for additional keybinds), and the only problem I had was training myself to use the RZ-Axis for turning left or right and I did have to program the "enter/exit turret mode" keybind. Are you using a joystick, controller, mouse & keyboard, or combination thereof? In my usage of keyboard and joystick, the game can sometimes try to re-do a keybind but not to it properly.
3: As a matter of fact, you can change the name of a bookmark, by clicking the bookmark and selecting edit. But, in typing that out, I do think that the bookmark system could use some expansion, such as different colors.

I love your idea of rank colour schemes! Subtle design shifts, could be cool, too... insignia, stripes, etc.
Oh! Now that I am reading over what I had written, I meant Power-Specific designs! (e.g., Aisling Duval, Arissa Lavigny, Edmund Mahon, etc.); the factions are so plentiful, that might be overwhelming.
That said, even just having different outfits for basic powers (e.g., Imperial, Alliance, etc.) would be cool, as long as you add decals for our shoulders that are more specific, such as the Powerplay Decal Pack that you sell for ships.
As for other decals, I was thinking floral patters or vines, perhaps? Daisies being scattered to the winds on a nameplate? Pretty lettering, perhaps?
Yes! Pets! I would love a kitty, whom I could place in different areas of my cockpit, who sits there, licking her paw or something...

I'll have to go see when I get to my home station (I'm flying in DW2), as I do not have anything to swap out here... but I remember not being able to simply swap and finding it frustrating, because I was switching out passenger compartments in my Orca, and I remember not being able to switch them out; I had to store the one, then go back in and install the other.
