This makes sense - but are there any situations where a corp might not want the standings to change automatically? (I can't think of any off the top of my head, but you never know) Maybe instead of it being automatic there could be a "Align standings to Alliance" button or something.

The only situation I could think of, is that the corp has a spy in an enemy corp or alliance, and their own alliance doesn't know about it.

In which case, mirroring Alliance standings, and then having any corp standings override the Alliance mirror.

Do people even set their spies blue? I don't know anything about that sort of thing anyhow. Still, mirroring is a good idea.

As a CEO, I respect my alliance's standings (for the most part) but there are standings that are unique to my corporation. We have one corporation that operates in the same patch of lowsec we do and they've agreed not to fire on DFIAS and we've agreed not to fire on them. That doesn't meant hat all of our alliance is blue to them, nor should it. Most of our alliance doesn't fly in that region's lowsec.

There was an incident where one corporation was kicked from the alliance we were in, due to personal squabbles between that corp's CEO and the executor of the alliance in question. We did not agree with the action and refused to attack our friends in the corp that got kicked. The alliance had them set to -10.0 red (which was childish). DFIAS had them set to +5.0 blue.

Corp standings are not personal standings are not alliance standings and that is as it should be. If you can't handle Outpost Management, then pass the torch to somebody else in your alliance who can handle it.
