I was often thinking how good would it be if there would be some sort of court mechanic where by events you could get some disgruntled character from nearby country or rival or allied country. For example a rival calimant rises when a week heir ascends the throne and he gets beaten and there is a ceratin chance that after that he flees to a neighbouring country or rivaled to the mother country. This country then has an event to add him to their court and use him for a potential CB to put him on the throne and. Something similar could be achieved with other rebels and other types of CBs or enabling some covert actions. Imagine a religious leader asking your support to take over and impose a different religion on a country. I would even like to see some rare events wher disgruntled estates that were suppresed by a low legitimacy ruler offer you the throne of that cuntry, but that can be OP and should be rare. All of those characters could be seen in your court tab together with your imediate family members, advisors and those could be into some kind of others or extended court.

Maybe diplomats improving relations or stying with/on you could also appear there and some interactions be available for them. You of course should not see diplomats spying but maybe a capture chance should be when they are discovered and maybe you would be able to employ them as counter spies giving you a one time amount of spy network against the other country. The options are endless.
