The option to use LP to clear out unopened plexes. It's not hard to be that guy that opened all the enemy buttons. This could help save LP investments if other sources of LP are reduced with changes, and allow us to invest a little more in keeping upgrades high in home systems during down-times.
The option to burn out active cloaks in system.
Bonus to PI resource pools planet side.
I realize some of those are not structure specific. Allow Citadels to be anchored/linked to ihubs permanently (or until they are destroyed), and give them a unique style appropriate to faction, with a discount to upgrade costs for system level depending on structure size. Have them become the ihub, basically.

We should be talking about penalties for these things, and not bonuses. They'll be called siege Citadels, and that's what they'll be used for. The docking check on restrictions might soften their impact, but ultimately put into question their purpose in the WZ. If these are intended to replace PoS, which are working just fine after recent changes, then I think that is such a sad waste. These are such a great idea, but so OP if they are to phase out PoS. Why would anyone build a station with these available? My initial comment for bonuses may have seemed out from left field, but if you really thought about it, having these before the objective that is bashed for system control would make them the greatest conflict driver we can have. An icon of envy and aggression; those who would build it invite war. And we all know fozziesov was framed on the principles of FW, and it could easily become the best change down there too. Alas, their uniqueness will not find their potential as replacements to towers, and that sucks.

It already takes so long to grind a system that the extra time would be pretty redundant and such a buzz kill. People should be fighting the whole time to get it out of reinforced (vulnerable) mode. Except I would make offensive attachments vulnerable, regardless of system levels, much as they are on towers, being that they are outside the PoS shield. Com'on CCP! Take a giant leap forward instead of a step back with what this looks like atm.
+1 for iHub hats

If people fight in one warzone, but not the other, thats not indicative of broken mechanics. Just the outcome of a sequence of player decisions.
It is underwhelming when offensive plexing for a fight is so out-done by mission running. People ask you why u do it! You shrug. That, I think, is symptomatic to how the mission mechanics do affect who goes out in a pvp frigate as opposed to who will go out in a mission fit. In our warzone, going out for offensive plexing turns out being a reward in itself, even if you don't find a fight. Multiply that by every gal pilot that shares the same mentality and you have a huge perception shift that cultivates pvp.

I'm not sure about what bonuses exactly to apply, but a good general principle seems to be for the system bonuses to have synergies with new Citadel features. If you've put the effort into building a citadel, bonuses should encourage putting effort into keeping system upgrades active and vise versa.
Another idea would be instead of non FW carebears getting enhanced NPC stations in FW space, those carebears might get the same benefits from using FW player deployed Citadels. FW players then get to skim some income from activity taking place in their structures, providing an income stream at the Corp / Alliance level for FW entities that doesn't depend on LP or moon mining.
Yes! +1 for iHub Hats! We can do this! ::fist pump::
