After that, the ability for players to hide themselves from local is something we have needed for a long time.
IMO that would require you to not be able to see local, and not be able to use your d-scan since you are immune to both. I would not care if you can see the gate grid, because participants on the gate grid can see the gate flash.

Note that I left w-hole activation from the list just because it makes to much sense and might leave a cyno as well because you don't arrive to a system through a gate in both cases.  
You appear to be doubling up on the purposes performed by indexes. As a solo player I can occasionally hold the military index at 4, and can't even scratch indy at all. A large corp can hold index 5 on all indexes, and in my case, on my pipe that gives them a forsaken hub, more reasonable anomolies total, more miniprofs and more ded signature spawns, and when they are at indy 5 they get enough anomolies to make determining the location of the miners not absolutely automatic and trivial.
Intel quality should be tied to effort made in collecting said intel, it shouldn't be a reward for logging in and out, which I would simply do x number of times a day to improve mine, all the time gritting my teeth and hating you for making me do such a stupid pointless thing (a well known phenomenon in gaming).
I happen to pve within d-scan range of my gates, which is a risk (i'm relatively close to interceptors on the gate) and a reward (I can always see the hull type of an entrant by spamming after they arrive in local). Intel should be tied to effort and risk, not logging on.
