Player Owned Customs Offices [Requesting a Corp Hangar and/or Corp Contracts]

I have a feature request for player owned customs offices:

1. Since they are "Corporate" assets, some corporate hangar space would make sense. Perhaps 50k-100k.

- I realise this change would make PI an easier logistical task, but it would also potentially mean corps/players risking more of their PI goods by storing them in corp hangars off planet in the POCO, presenting a juicier target too.

2. Allow corporate (and maybe public) contracts to be set up at/from POCOs

- This is to enable players and or corporations to trade their PI goods without any internal player/corp hauling requirement. Using jetcans to a corpmate outside of POCOs as the only means to trade PI goods between corpmates seems intuitively wrong when you've paid upto 100M to put of the 'corporate' structure.
- First this provides corporations more control over customs office operations, and the hauling will still need to be done *eventually* by someone, just potentially higher tier products being hauled and/or enabling 3rd party hauling services for example.

Feedback. Cheers.

It would encourage corps to work together more on PL activity, rather then it being solo till its exported from the Customs Office?

Supported. Giving corps more control will help make this activity alot less daunting. And would allow players without much PI skill to be hauling support which encourages more group play.

But only on ones owned not concord or interbus ones.

An easy mechanism is needed for transferring one corp members PI goods to another corp members PI hangar AT the customs office. Either contract or a corp hangar would work.
