I think that there should be a subspace communications block that would allow members of a faction to pull up the galaxy map and see were every one in the faction is, and shows you all the players within radar range of the players in your faction.
HOLY SHIT YES. SO MUCH YES.
Plus you could make frequencies and have it so only certain ships in your fac show up; ie you could see where all mining ships are and such. Also, Jammers could be used to hide ships from it.
If I might add on to this idea loosely, I think some form of distress beacon that highlights a sector on the galactic map for all players to see would be decent. Your idea works similarly to this so I thought I'd weigh it in.
I just realized that you could add the ability for members of a faction who have the proper permissions, to issue orders to faction members.
For example a faction leader might order three of his players to attack a station. They would get a message and a way point in the galaxy map.
I was just thinking it could be cool to add to this, a death markers.
When a player of a faction dies all members of the faction get a way point in the galaxy map showing where it happened. This marker should only last for a minute or two.
