With the advent of the new form factor of super capital ships, created by the Elysian minds in far and fair Reykjavik, a new feature becomes available that corporations and alliances may want to explore for greater immersion.
These ships have holographic displays. How easy/hard would it be to use these displays to carry the corporate / alliance insignia. Within alliances it might even be possible to display unit badges for the battlegroup one is a member of.
This kind of display would greatly enhance immersion, more so for people who have served in actual combat units and for whom a battle standard is a fond and proud memory.
A mechanism would be made available through which these insignia would be designed and provided to the developers so that they could be acquired by the alliance / corporation / pilot (specific rights would have to be assigned so that one group does not use a battle standard from another alliance / corporation). The developers would find an elegant solution to that problem.
Purchasing such an insignia / battle standard would come at its own cost and might serve as an ISK sink.
At any rate the goal would be to increase immersion, build social cohesion inside corporations and alliances, and make this phantasmagorically beautiful game even more of a delight to enjoy.
