At first I srsd, then I srsd some more, then I lold, and then I just realised it's a game and I just want to have fun.
How ever, from a Roleplayers point of view, who's been here a little while, I can firmly say that I approve this.. Thing..
How ever, I can also say for sure that it will never happen..
Why?
More work for the admins..
Solution, let the faction leaders handle the their NPC faction's capital vessels (Heck i'd be fine with cruisers and up!)
Let the official factions (if there are more representing a NPC faction) decide if a player should have their Cap ship or not.
Or if people think its wrong for official factions to make that call.
Then choose members to act as judges, basing their experiences with RP and stories and what not to see if the person application is good enough to handle a battleship.
This last group I think would work best if for example lead by an admin, but the rest can be random members that the admins can choose themselves.
Choose 9 people, if they accept they will rule on the request.
This way it's not factionlancer and the admins wont have TO much more to do..
