What would you like to see in the GPL store?

Since we all can assume that the gpl store will be updated with new items, what would be the things you want to see and buy in there?
My personal wishlist would be:
Nagus staff replica
Ferengi outfits
Nagus marauder ship (probably like a billion gpl)
More holomitters
Gpl to lobi conversion ( 1 lobi for 10k gpl)
More tattoos and scar options you can buy
Ship and personal equipment, gpl based (gold and shiny stuff)
So like the title, what would you like to be added to the gpl store?

But at least now all my charatcers have all 4 sunglasses unlocked.
If the gpl to lobi becomes one of the things( which I doubt) people will be addicted to dabo
GPL can be farmed like mad just like EC and as such don't expect anything in a game store to be some massive prize ship. The dilithium store might have those fancy costumes but the in flow of dilithium is limited per character, EC and GPL are a free for all.
Personally I'd like to see some silly single use stuff like the party balls. The much requested "cause toons to face and salute your character" item would be cool. Holoemiters, doff missions (like the holoadventure ones), daft costume items and outfits.
If that were to happen, it would be at a much higher rate. I had characters get up to 150-200k GPL in the first day of the Admiralty. Probably got 500-600k total across all my characters.
(even ignoring that, I've got thousands of Winter holiday ornaments that I could exchange at the Ferengi NPC for 200 GPL each. Just takes a lot of clicks. Some kind of auto-click program would manage that nicely.)
More costumes would be nice.
Or a "gold" ship material
I would like to see the former lobi store and current dilithium store devices being moved to the GPL store. 3-4k dilithium is (and lobi certainly was) too valuable to spend on consumables that can only be used once. GPL has no other uses. Risa and Winter event non-ship rewards could also be placed in the GPL store.

Accolades checklist: https://bit.ly/FLUFFYS
Not like the accents in the ship customizer, but a full on "change the base-coat color of your ship to one of your liking" paint job. Not fond of the base colors you get for each skin? Paint the ship.
I know a certain Gorn character that would love to own a neon orange ship.
Things I want in STO:
1) More character customization options such as more clothing options, letting the toon complexion affect the entire body, not just the head. Also a true RGB color picker applied to all costume and appearance options, which would allow for true appearance customization and homogenous colors instead of "this same exact color looks vastly different on two different pieces."
2) Bridge customization, not bridge packs. Let us pick a general layout and adjust the color palette, console appearance, and chair types, as well as more ready room layout options.
3) Customizable ground weapons, i.e. The aesthetic look of phaser dual pistols but they shoot antiproton bolts. For obvious reasons this would only apply to standard ground weapons.
4) For the love of Q please revamp Plasma Ground Weapons. They look like demented Supersoakers right now.
5) True Vanity Impulse and Deflector effects similar to Vanity Shields.
6) A greater payout for hitting T6 Reputations. Currently it takes more time and resources to get from T5 to T6 than it does to get from nothing to T5. Make that grind really pay out at the end.
7) Mirrorverse Refugee event similar to AoY/Delta/Gamma, complete with new Mirrorverse recruits for all factions.
8) Independent Faction, because yo ho yo ho a pirate's life for me!
There is a vast backlog of GPL because it is relatively easy to get and has essentially nothing of value to spend it on; by the time you add in the simply vast amounts Ferengi Admiralty gives, any GPL to lobi rate still has a damaging effect on a major component of the system that is the primary way the game makes the money it needs to run - to get lobi means you need to open lockboxes, which means someone has to spend Zen on keys, which barring subscription obtained Zen (which is still paid for) the Zen was paid for.
And by having the desirable stuff in the lobi store, it means people spend to acquire them, which means taking stuff out of the lobi store is also not going to happen.
It would definitely make sense in lore terms, but it isn't good for the game.
They could always do what I've suggested before...
Since in Trek Canon GPL is a solidified currency, it should be able to be used to buy things we need.
So what you do is you create a GPL Exchange and Expand the GPL store to include items that you can only buy with GPL and things that you can purchase with either GPL or EC while stil having certain items you can only buy with EC. This will ensure that each system is semi-independent from each other and the pricing systems will ensure that few things spiral out of control in terms of price.

If we are going down this route, just swap the two over completely - everything that is currently EC becomes GPL, and everything that is currently GPL becomes EC. Far closer to canon.
I'll settle for all gamblebox ships eventually ending up in the lobi store.
Visual upgrades to weapons instead.
Imagine a pair of dual AP pistols painted black with gold plating trim or the Zefram Cochrane Shotgun with a nickel finish.

As long as those effects in no way interfere with my ability to do/interact with anything.
conversion to EC or dilith
instakill death rays to all ferengi ships in the quadrant.
Awoken Dead
Now shaddup about the queues, it's a BUG
lobi/rep consumables section= I'm not wasting precious lobi on one and done stuff!!!!! but would for gpl (just add a zero and double the price, like 20 lobi = 200 or 400 gpl)
lobi costumes- 200 lobi to say like 8-20000 gpl??
I would like a choice between master keys, lobi, dil or even fleet ship modules as the final 10/10 reward
bound to account of course:) just some random thoughts.
A million-to-1 Lobi conversion would be good, too.
