Not really a "new" idea there, been asked for many times. Had the answer "No" many times, too. Anything like player-to-player trading ends up becimeing a link to the real-world economy, leading to Chinese gold-farmers, pay-to-win, etc etc. The answer has always been "No", and will continue to be "No" until and unless someone comes up with a really, really good reason for it to be put into the game, and/or a way to do it that excludes the possibility of a RWE link.

Now this one is a new idea. Though I can't really see it catching on; all it would end up becoming is a giant source of complaints about "the gambling grind". Engineers used to be gambling (with a roulette wheel and everything); they took that away because of the complaints and it became pure progression-based. I can't see them introducing a new form of gambling after that.

Here the problem is more technical, rather than ideological. The game's networking model means that a large number of ships makes the game unstable. If you've got four fighters to launch, then all the other players and NPCs out there in a CZ get four fighters too... that's 80+ ships in a single instance. This is the main reason why fighters have been restricted to one per ship.
