I would LOVE if there was a countdown timer next to names that are expiring. That would help me manage this, and be VERY helpful to the casual player.
Another suggested feature: Add a server player count to the character screen.

Be a good husband and take care of her chars for her. It doesn't take much time to log them in periodically if it means she'll continue to play with you.
Which I plan to do. However my wife is an example of what others may be experiencing. The causal player won't understand or appreciate this name change policy. And I can't log in for my casual friends the same as I can for my wife.

Having a naming policy is fine, I just don't particularly like this one. It's fine for those of us who are active, but for those like my wife who play very sporadically it is more of a burden and becomes more like a job. I want her to play with me, but if she loses the name of a character that is dear to her, she will quit playing. That's not a threat, it's just sad a reality for many more casual players.
That said, I see the need for something. Name camping is a problem for new players who can't find a name they want. Here are my suggestions:
(1) I would prefer the "permanent" names be lowered to level 40. I would also prefer the 1-5 names be doubled to 60 days, and 6-20 increased to 120 days. I would like a permanent name lock on a name that matches your global, though I realize that would be difficult to stop everyone from making multiple accounts. Maybe limit it to globals created prior to May 20?
(2) It would be great for names to not be unique. I know it might take some coding, but doesn't all of the improvements we are getting? It's just a matter of priority. The names are already not unique per shard. Could the code be fooled to think each global name is it's own shard for purposes of character name?
(3) Is there a name request thread? A name trade thread? Something like that. If not, someone please start one for each server/shard. Those were always the best on Virtue. You will find that many people are willing to give up a name to a good home. (And PM me a link, I want to participate!).

Pretty sure Paragon Chat will let you load an old base from your demorecord if you have one of your base (see the SG Registrar). I would love this to be an added feature of SCORE, etc.

Awesome, thanks!

How do you get a teleport to base power? I seem to remember that as a thing, but it has been awhile.
