When they add the ability to turn your first officer into a playable alt, hopefully later in the year, I'd like to see them take this tech and make it also the basis for "race changes".
So, for example, I'm a Liberated Borg Vice Admiral. Say I have a Trill BO. I can "sacrifice" my Captain (maybe in a little 30 minute death/retirement themed storyline inspired by City of Heroes' respecs, where you actually did a mission for them) and have the Trill take over his role, inheriting his ships, rank, and items.
The net effect is a race change but the "cost" is a bridge officer and time spent and, unlike promoting a First Officer into an alt, this would be replacing my main with the First Officer.

I am willing to bet that this idea of an associated quest (which many would never see) will never be put into place.
Also that cost to re-species will actually end up being not a bridge officer and time, but instead will be about 400 Atari Tokens.
that would be kind of cool.
