I'd like to see more color to the overview system. I've taken the liberty of having a friend recolor this one to show my example, though I forgot to tell him to make the text after the gold destination gate blue.

Purple represents Favorite places. Red represents avoidance areas or disliked areas. Blue would represent a system you have set as a home or a system where a corporate hanger is owned. Pushing further we can even set this to allow system based standings to sort of color systems the way we like or color systems where alliance members own hangers or a POS blue and corp owned POSes/hangers to green.

Mostly, I just want to be able to mark certain systems I like to visit most often as purple, marking my home as blue, and (if I should ever need to) mark systems to avoid as red. This goes for belts and stuff too. Favorite belts as purple, avoid belts as red. Stations with the same setup, purple, blue, red. This can be something you set by right clicking either an object in space directly and have a "set color to %list%" or a "Set overview type as 'home','avoid','favorite'.". I'm sure you'll figure out something for this though.
