If there is one thing to request in the next patch is this:

A Supply Transfer window
Just for those desperate moments...

) Independent AI ministers > to ships / units?.
) Improved AI communication & trade with player.
) SHIP/UNITES MENU > Ship types> how many # of cruisers, destroyers the number amount per TYPE like in se3.
)Fill in the TAB gaps.

Did I mention wheel mouse support?

Well, if I didn't, here you go:

WHEEL MOUSE SUPPORT

Why SEIVG doesn't have it, I don't know, but it is surely annoying.

There is a few shortcuts I would like to see in the Map Editor to make it a little less tedious and a little more useful.

1. Easy to add warp points: Just click on two systems and viola - a warp point.

2. Make random system: Pick a system and have it make random planets/asteroids/etc.

These two shortcuts I think would result in a whole lot more custom maps for this game.

A simpler way to simplify the WP creation might be a "Add reciprocal warppoint" checkbox in the window while you are adding the first one.

I agree that the random system generator would be immensely useful.
An option to specify a particular system type would be nice.
IE: - Add "BlackHole 1" system at map position (24,37).
- Add "Binary 3" system at map position (10,12)

Then you get enough control, but with all of the real busywork of planet forming done for you.

On the Map editor: Maybe make it more flexible to substitute it as a scenario editors?

For Starcraft (and warcraft I believe) there were Scenario Editors that could make maps and scenarios. (Although lots of people couldn't understand the triggers or how to use them)

Maybe make it so we can add ships, colonies and empires in the map making process?

And also (I know I'm asking a lot here but I feel like Christmas-y) maybe add an option to create systems and warp points in some sort of pattern that you can set; that goes beyond Just setting Spiral Arm galaxy or Midlife galaxy, more like

Make: Spiral Arm
Choke Points: 5-10
Black holes: 10
Nebulas: 30

And so on.
