I've always thought an interesting startup scenario would be the classic escape from the sun going nova scenario (name it the Nova mod, perhaps?). You would put all players with a single colony ship starting at the same starting point in a system with an unstable star. They would all need to move out of the system before the sun goes nova, and then play the game as normal from there. Presumably they would go their different ways, settle colonies, and eventually get down to fighting.

I seem to remember some scenario made by geoschmo where he experimentally tried playing as if he were a neutral race (never using warp points) and eventually got hit by a supernova event. As I recall, the scenario starts on the turn with the 3 year warning log message, so you have 30 turns to evacuate your only system before it blows up, and all the AIs have had a fair while to expand already.
