Yeah, I wished they spent this development cycle working on what makes the game great already. This EVE gate thing really does not excite me one bit, if they opened up a few more API services 3rd party developers would have been able to do that anyway.
I disagree, but only to a point. The API talk is 100%, but the path CCP has chosen seems to be the right one in regards to PI

Planetary interaction is going to swallow up so much CCP development time, it's not funny. EVE is set in space, lets not forget that during development sprints.
Eve is set in a time period IMHO.

Something that needs addressing is the bounty system, well here's a thought: It should be possible to put a bounty on anyone's head via contracts by transferring kill rights to another player that if successful are nulled, or if it's low sec/null sec I guess kill rights don't matter anyway. This would open up the mercenary side of EVE, and would be a nice feature for PvP as roaming gangs would finally be able to make a living taking care of griefers and the like.
Sweet god, this is 100% EXACTLY what the game needs to balance playstyles - and it would get lo-sec utilized much more.

Some UI improvements with the scanning system would be good, like being able to have multiple groups probes. So that groups can be moved together or maybe even allowing the formation to be saved, so that next time, dump probes, click a formation and they arrange themselves in space ready to scan stuff - much easier. 
Hell yes...

I'd like to see a dedicated salvager ship, and why can't hacking modules "hack" other peoples anchored cans in space? I'd love to steal things considered locked up and safe in the belts.
Just like all the dedicated purpose ships... er... wait a sec. But the hacking... well that would be sweet...

Something to address corporate theft would also be great, lets extend the employment history to optionally allow a CEO to leave a twitter length comment when that member leaves the corp. That way, you can leave something negative to warn other CEOs about that the character is a thief, or the best damn pilot you've ever known.
Hell yes...

These are just a few ideas as a player and a developer I see as quick fixes, that would open up a few new aspects in this game and cheer a bunch of folks up.
Don't mean to flame at all - I agree with most of your post. I really would like to see some of these come about, as I'm sure alot of people do. But there is the other side of Eve that would see some of these changes as a nerf to their playstyle... Tough to win.
