Not sure if this has came up before but it would be great if we could align ourselves to a minor faction in game. So if we have a player faction, for example, we can align with them and then interdictions will come from enemies of that faction, and if we're doing a CZ then other CMDR's can scan us and see what faction we are aligned too, and possibly what superpower that faction is aligned with (so can see that we're aligned to Fed but delivering Empire goods - my usual CZ!)
