When you select an idea group, you should get new missions reflecting that idea. For example, taking colonization ideas will give you colonizing missions. Taking quality ideas will give you missions to increase your army professionalism. You could do a million of these, apply them to every nation, and very easily. This would give the new mission feature a much more dynamic feel, while minimizing work load.

Yeah the new mission system is kind of lackluster. I don't even understand why some are linear. As France I went through almost the entire colonization chain in one go, because I never bothered to build 20 heavy ships, so when I did that, I immediately competed the rest that I've done like a 100 years ago.

So having missions locked behind idea groups sounds like a neat way of not making them available all at the start, but still being able to complete them when it makes sense.
 
Yes, this has been my exact thought since the new mission system and all the complains about missing flavor in generic tree countries. It is the easiest way for the devs to bring as much flavor as possible to as many tags as possible in the game!
