A little frivolous (and I am not demanding FDev implement this, it is all tongue-in-cheek) but wouldn't it be nice if the NPC were honest in their communications with us players:
Station Controller: Core Dynamics Juliet Alpha Sierra you are cleared to proceed and land on Pad 42. I see that you have a docking computer installed, trust us, whilst your ship is under control we will take the upmost care (insert evil laugh)
Station Controller: Core Dynamics Juliet Alpha Sierra you are cleared to proceed and land on Pad 42. Ah you have a docking computer, can't land huh, will you be requiring assistance when departing because evidently you are incapable of simple flight control.
Federal Police Anaconda: All security forces, I have identified two high value, Elite class wanted felons. I have initiated my attack run, only assistance is a clean Vulture. Wait one, that Vulture just nicked my shield as I dove between him and one of the targets, I have placed a 200C bounty on him for making me spill my coffee. All ships, refocus attack on the Vulture and ignore the original targets.
Mostly Harmless Pirate in an unshielded Eagle: Let me see what you have in that Python, come on, show me, I demand you show, come on I'm asking nice here. Well if you won't show me I am just going to fire up my burst laser and teach you a lesson.
System Authority Vulture: Ah I see you just departed the station, don't mind me, I am going to play chicken with you whilst I do my scan. But don't worry, if I hit you, I won't fine you or anything - PROMISE
I am sure others here can come up with conversations we either should be hearing or want to hear
