Provide a way to see how many opposition players are on your server. I would like to be able to see how many imp or sith are online in the same way I can now see how many republic players are online with me. Also be able to message opposition to challenge to a dual and arrange to meet in areas like tatooine open pvp arena which is always a ghost town at the moment on my server. Maybe a new type of direct pvp challenge mission, with incentives and bonuses, like chests of loot,XP etc were added, to encourage players to make a direct challenge like this, it would make the dead open pvp areas come to life. I would like to see a way you could also spectate around the open pvp arena to watch the current battle. Also be able to see the avatars queued to fight on either side of the arena. This could help make the current queue system for pvp far less of a boring wait for all.

Yes I think there should be, like in flight school a training ship to start and your class ship earned later, I think there is alot of potential to make the training aspects of the game much more like a task you have to learn rather than just spend credits to get the skill.

Free Roaming Space Missions sector wide with grouped team mates Vs grouped PVP players in thier ships. Currently the space missions are too captured in a loop that is very predictable. I would like to see the space missions evolve to include totally free roaming flights along side players you are grouped with to attack groups of opposition PVP players in thier ships. The freedom of flying anywhere you want in the starwars universe and the ability to fly alongside other players in our ships so it is more like a flight sim style of play would be far better. New missions could be created revolving around PVP ship fighting areas in each part of the galaxy map. Also docking proceedures ,proof you have mastered basic ship control, weapons and sheilds , ecm could all be incorporated as a way to earn your piloting skills and your ship.
