The idea is simple. Create a new tab in the chat panel (upper UI box) that lists local criminal activity in systems with high, medium, and maybe even low security. If you drop into a security controlled system that has a commander with a bounty or bad enough karma, the nav beacon will send a warning notification to the new bounty board. The same happens if a player with bad karma drops in when you are already in the system.
If a player has super bad karma, one at a notorious murderhobo level, Nav beacons will notify all players in med-high security systems up to 50-100ly away which system they have been spotted in. This allows players to respond to or avoid criminal behavior. It will also allow the community to police itself without requiring tracking limpets or wake scanners since the presence of such players could be considered an emergency situation. This could be challenging to code, but I think it would be well worth all the effort and change the face of open entirely by providing more action for everyone, including more people for the criminals to kill.
