Clan name prefixes! (There are lots of big/medium clans out there! See below...)

I've excitedly just discovered a large list of ED clans that folks can join!!

Look here: https://inara.cz/wings/

They're called 'wings', but some have hundreds of members and are really clans (wings are really just a group of up to 4 players co-op'ing in-game).

So... wouldn't it be GREAT to be able to have a clan tag preceding our names (like in Battlefield 1, for example). Such as, [TPF] MyName (where "[TPF]" is the clan name example).

Screen/functons needed:
1) Create/Read/Update/Delete (CRUD) functions - for of clan ownership and folks wanting to start/manage a clan.
2) Create/Read/Update/Delete (CRUD) functions - for of clan membership and folks wanting to join/manage clans they are members of (say a maximum of 10 clan memberships per player, like Battlefield 1).

Here is YouTube demo of how clans is implemented in Battlefield 1. ED could use a similar model.

Wouldn't that be awesome?!!

It would encourage folks winging up (safety in numbers!), and playing in Open Play, which is always a good thing IMO. :-D

I expect that the upcoming Squadrons feature will have a "short form" of the Squadron's name that is in some way visible for CMDRs who are members.
 
I could live with a squadron name displayed in the same way that minor factions display for NPCs.

I just detest [1337] notation in names and the mentality that comes with it.
