I'd love to see court intrigue in the game. Things like a dwarf trying to either become friends of or bribe the mayor to sack the current Broker so he can become the new broker
 Then you could decide to either manually force your pick back (which would upset the scheming dwarf) or let the court shenanigans just play out for fun. You could also have assassination attempts actually done to gain power. If a person is unsatisfied by how the fortress is running, they might plan a coup and, together with a group of dwarves, either expel or imprison or kill the current mayor and put one of their own in power. We see something similar in Legends mode for civs but I would love to see this level of intrigue in an actual fortress.

Other examples would be people corrupting the Captain of the Guard to forge evidence against someone for a crime they didnt commit and you only finding out either by knowing who actually did it or by having a mayor with the right stats actually seeing that the situation is iffy and it appearing in his bio that he is suspicious of the captain of the guard. Then you could replace him and have a new independent captain further investigate things and uncover the whole plot.
