Suggestion
Allow players to be granted partial and/or limited no-trade clauses. This could work in one of two ways, depending on how complex you want it to be. The simpler version would allow a player who accepts a Partial NTC to submit a list of teams he will (or will not) accept a trade to. The more advanced version would allow for either a Partial NTC, wherein a player could choose 5 or so teams he WILL accept a trade to, or a Limited NTC, wherein the player would choose 5 teams he will NOT accept a trade to. In either case, the listed teams should be determined in the same manner in which the player's free agency preferences would be chosen. As with all other NTCs, players should either drop their NTC, or incrementally lower their NTC (full to partial, partial to limited, limited to none) if their mood changes.

Reason
Mainly because it's a standard clause in real life players' contracts. Also, as a fictional league commissioner, it allows for more control over where your players move. (All NTCs should be fully editable!)

Priority
Super-Crazy Extremely HIGH!!! (This may very well be the one feature I personally am jonesing for the most.)
