Alliance Battles

I don't know if this has been mentioned already but will there be any plans to implement battles with more then 2 factions doing the combat? For example if the UE and Sophons are in an alliance and both are at war with the Cravers. All 3 factions have fleets in a single system and a battle initiates will it be possible to see the alliance factions team up against the Cravers? I know that the CP needs to be balanced so it could be done like this say the cravers have 3 fleets all 3 have 23/23 max CP. The UE and the Sophons have one fleet each 23/23. Therefore when the battle begins the UE and Sophon Fleets combine but it will still equal the Cravers fleet since it will be 23/23UE and 23/23Sophons VS 23/23Cravers 1st fleet and 23/23Cravers 2nd fleet. This way the combat will not be unbalanced since the CP values are still equal, its just that the rate of attrition will be higher for the Cravers which can be one of the benefits of being in an alliance. 

Seeing more than one faction fight in a battle, is that possible? I think perhaps options to ask for or be asked for assistance in the diplomacy, create alliance target systems and objectives is also a feature that would add depth. 

Perhaps have a coalition fleet which is under the control of who ever gets the most votes out of the people in the alliance (can use influence to push vote). This fleet will have ships from every member of the alliance. For example if the coalition consist of 3 factions the coalition fleet will contain CP from each faction but be under the control of whom ever has the most influence to influence the votes in the coalition. The fleets can be repaired and upgraded in alliance space.
