I think it would be awesome to be able to set at least the population at which certain nobles will arrive. Some people run DF with a population cap, and sometimes that's necessitated by lag increases as you get more and more dwarves. For example, to stay around 100fps, I've limited my population to 50 in my latest fort, but would still love to get the economy (I'm one of the weird people that like it) and maybe even the king. Setting that in the init files would be totally awesome.

Maybe the ability to request a noble early... after all, very few people would be suicidal enough to do it.

It make more sense for the nobility to be tied to Created Wealth instead of population.  I would actually enjoy getting the buggers to come out to my 30 population fort's dunking booth.

I think goblin attacks should be tied to exported wealth.  If your not exporting then the goblins shouldn't really know your there.

Both could have population as secondary triggering mechanisms.

I know civs have (for the purposes of trade/invasion) tags for triggers based on wealth and population, but these are measured in basic integers of 1, 2, 3, etc. - usually 2 is the max, 1 is the minimum.

Yeah, a little bit of modding will make it so that goblins will only arrive from exported wealth, doesn't run on that specific of a system though, being only able to set integers between 1 and 5 that represent much larger jumps.
