Systems should be hexagon-based rather than squares. This is easy enough to do once you give up on forcing the system window into a defined square in a rigidly divided UI screen.
Sadly, MM has stated that hex maps will not be done because a lot of code that is planned to be reused from SE4 is based directly on the maps being divided into squares.
