Wouldn't it be nice if you could specify which types of contracts you'd prefer and ONLY get those contracts offered by your different allies?
Of course, to have such a benefit you would have to get to a certain, reasonable reputation (100 maybe) with your preffered allies/ally (maybe even a certain rank for Bounty Hunting contracts too?)
For example, you could add a "Contract Preferences" button in the Palace section and specify the following:
1. Types of contract (i.e. Trade, Assassination, Capture, etc.)
2. Enemy preference (i.e. House Thulun, Steel Song Clan, Clan Javat)
3. Reward Range (i.e. $35,000+)
4. Distance from planet
5. Is not allied with x faction at the moment of seeing the contract
This does not mean that the normal types and amounts of different contracts would change; it just means that from their pre-determined contracts, factions would only show you the contracts with your specifications, meaning that there would be far fewer contracts for you since not all are going to meet your standards. I think this would be an amazing addition to save some mental energy and time from reading all those contracts that won't benefit you.
Furthermore, if the player shows that he/she is commited to these contracts, wouldn't it be nice for the ally faction to slightly up the frequency of preferred contracts every x number of consecutive contracts completed (maybe 10 or so)?
I just really think that this would up the experience for the player since once you get to the latter stages of the game and you got more than 1 ally, it gets pretty scrutinous trying to find a contract that won't lower your reputation with any of your allies and that is even financially worthwhile. Again I think this could be a pretty nice reward for someone who has been working hard with any one faction, and would only add to the incentive of building strong diplomatic relationships in the game.
