Hmmm... any 3 wishes?
1. I like the Master Smuggler only pistol, but how about you craft it on your weapon tool and you add 3 pistols into the required slots, one would be gun frame(what the pistol will look like) next, damage(type and amount of damage gun will do). Last would be speed(self explanitory). The quality of all pistols would play a factor in the pistol produced. So you throw in a D18, a good damage sliced launcher pistol and a speed sliced scout pistol, and you wind up with a D18 that does 155-260 blast damage and shoots at .8 speed. Give us some experimentation points in the underworld tree and let us up the damage or duribilty of the weapon before we finish it. The better the base pistols the more likely your experiments will be good. Maybe even let us throw any kind of weapon into the damage slot. Can anyone say flamethrower CDEF?
2. Spice tolerance points in the spice tree. the higher up you go the more immune you become. At Master your downer only lasts half of the regular time or less.
3. the ability to do unarmed attacks with a pistol equipped, so many of us are TKM's as well, let us do the attacks we have without having to unequip the pistol. Make the damage the same as it would be for completely unarmed(no vk's). just think, shot to the head, punch, punch, kick, shot to the nads, punch, kick, shot to the chest.

"Up ta three wishes he grants them all, but wish a fourth wish and you get none at all."
(I'd be impressed if someone told me what thats from)
Anyhow since it seems to be the trend today.
4. Higher Crackdown Penelties given this example of the current status.
Caught with contraband.. fined less than 500 credits..
Spit on a ST.. you get smacked down, insulted and fined 1000 credits plus a few thousand more if you happen to have alot of money.. (I love that BTW, I've lost more money spitting on STs than at the Lugjack machine)
Shout "Long Live the Rebellion!" in public - 10,000 credit fine. (try it, and make sure you spell it right hehehe)
Which is worse? Breaking the law? or disrespecting the Law Officer? which should have the harsher penalty?

I don't think that asking too much.

It is 
- Actual missions where smugglers smuggle.
- Smuggling for the player base with harsh penalties if they try it without a smuggler.
- Dynamic process to slicing that involves actual skill on the part of the player to determine the results.
One of the Four Horsemen of the Smuggler Apocalypse!

1. Someone sets up a special paypal account
2. everyone donates enough money that Caylin can live off of for one year
3. there ya go
but seriously 
1. The ability to smuggle
2. Some sort of danger to having contraband and doing illegal activites
3. Communication from the devs

yeah...smuggling.
Or they could just change the name of our profession to Slice Whore, Spice Fiend and Master of Nothing.

1. Brass Knuckles/unarmed moves
2. Visualeffects for taking spice (muon gold irradiating your mind with complete clarity... blah blah blah)
3. A new kind of slicing that involves player skill instead of cutting 2 wires. (i.e. a view of inside the weapon and having to adjust certain things in a certain amount of time/at the right time.)

Diopter that is such a cool idea, your third one that is, about a view of a circuit board or something and having to actually modify the thing in question...3 cheers for your creativity.

1. Much higher crackdown pens. Smugglers have easier time evading. Can help others evade the crackdown
2. Spices craftible like everything else. current stats would be like 70% and let you alter up and down times
3. all pistol and all basic weapons(non loot/quest)at master. If we know how to alter them we should be able to use them
4. underworld 4 sould let you buy/trade goods forloot drops stuff/ rare drops at master

my three ...eh? or so in no particular order
1. Feign Death to work in both pve and pvp. It should actually break agro in pve and you should not be attackable in pvp. the Little feign icon should look like a corpse.
2. Some sort of combat mods..../rolls eyes seriously if i have to have unarmed then I should have some sort of unarmed defense like groin kick or something. And for the love of pete could we at least get some pistol speed if not accuracy??
3. um I dunno smuggle? something?... anything, When they first did the contraband thing I thought it was a great step but now it is so infrequent and people can just place it in a droid anyway.
4. Master smuggler should have a much higher slicing potential. Dont raise the caps but the mins are way to low. We dont need materials to matter but we do need some randomness taken out. I dont need to choose my slice but I also do not need to get a 13% effect slice right after getting a 45% encumb.
5. eh my other wishes are for space expansion...however, I'm not at liberty to discuss those matters at this time /looks around nervously
