Well having moved through the Universe a couple times now i feel there is a need to make moving ships easier.
Therefor i'd like to propose a new class of transport ship, being very much like the current freighters.
- no slots at all
- hangar with room for like 6 assembled battleships
- no hangar access from space
- can use gates
A "real" carrier so to say.
and a tech II variant, much like the jumpfreighter compared to freighters, having less hangar size, but uses jumpdrive.
The ships purpose is of course moving rigged ships though the universe, this ship's mechanics and attributes should be engineered to make it viable for nothing else.

Something like a tech 2 Orca? Instead of a large cargohold, you have a large ship maintenance array.

This topic has been done to death already and I believe CCP said they were working on it.

freighter = 2-3 riged BS
jumpdrives in high sec? 
for lowsec you got other ships.
a nice idea, but there are better suggestions for ships.

In short the answer to the we are looking into it was to increase the max size of a courier contract from a size to small for a fit BS to the largest possible Freighter capacity.
So it has already been looked into.

well not quite the answer i was expecting :(
no, this is not about jumpdrive capability in highsec, that should still be limited to low security
i had a real argument against this recently, that battleship logistics are supposed to be difficult and therefor this shiptype isnt needed.
thats actually a good point
