There's a rather delicious suggestion on the main forums in regards to cross-faction teams.
It's called Probation and Duress.

The basic idea is to implement a system where a villain can 'travel' to the hero zones, and a hero to the villain zones, as long as there's a native character to sponsor them. They cannot solo, and must at least team with their sponsor.
Villains are considered "Probationary" - they're there for a specific purpose, and being carefully watched by the hero that sponsored them.
Heroes are considered "Under Duress" - the sponsoring villain has some means of forcing their cooperation. Kidnapping of a loved one, extortion, et cetera.
I won't go into the mechanics here - the thread pretty much lays the proposal out very cleanly.
I'm looking at the RP opportunities.
With this, you could have a hero in your villain base, or street sweeping, or in your mission instances. They are leashed to the sponsor, figuratively if not literally.
I find the whole concept... extremely delicious.

((This could be fun, and seems quite workable.))
(( Agreed. It would also form an excellent segue into the expansion they polled Fel and I on. If nothing else, it would definately encourage "heroine in peril" play ))
(( Sandre? EXACTLY! *drools* ))
( Hehe yea I certainly like this idea very much... there are some delicious heroines out there I'd like to get my hands on... and maybe a few other body parts as well! <3 )
