I was reading few threads about how people no longer want to help strangers with missions by ganging with them, because they might get ganked by whomever is in the gang or joins into gang afterwards.
Would it make sense to have a kind of "Friend or Foe" system in Gangs, that prevents you from attacking gang members unless both "disable" the system from their ship. This would help in 0.0 as well, as trigger happy blob pilots wouldnt shoot eachother by accident - but mainly because it would encourage people to group for missions in hi-sec, without fear of being attacked by gank-hungry tools.
So, basically it would work like this: When you are in gang and want to attack a gang member, both the target and the attacker would get a popup asking do they wish to disengage FOF identification (eg fight eachother/scrim) or not. What this brings to game? More people ready to help eachother with missions, no accidental shootings or ganks.

That wouldn't help with the current prevalent form of gang ganking.
You cannot shoot at another gang member, you will get turned into dust by CONCORD (as one poor fellow has learned by losing his Raven).
The current scam is this:
Guy A is running around in his pimped out BS.
Guy B and Guy C are at war with each other (and typically alts of each other).
Guy B gets Guy A to gang with him. Now, since A is in gang with B, he is a legitimate target for C. Guy B warps his gang to Guy C, and Guy C kills Guy A. Loot, rinse and repeat.

IIRC there's a warning screen if your gangmate is in a war. Is there a trick around that people are using?

Stupidity or trust, both work. Stupidity is more common, though.
