What do you think of giving everyone access to all the wormhole corrds without having to go find a wormhole? It could be a list much like the Ships on Planets page.

And/or

You could make a map like the colony map of the wormhole planets, but include an option to show different types of plants. (ie: colonys, score planets...etc). Players whould then be able to click on a wormhole (or other planet) near them and then on the destination wormhole making a line so they can see what lies on the desired path. This wouldn't have to be a different map just a revised map.

this is a really interesting idea. the map already is so cool and functional, but adding the option to see all wormholes and lines between them would be great. These lines could even be always visible, but really almost transparent so that the map has a spider webby space map look. or toggleable.

or as an addition to the Travel Time Calculator? enter two coords and it spits out travel time, but also a suggestion for most efficient wormhole path.

for example, i want to go from 450/450/50 to 550/550/50. for this example, there is a wormhole at 455/445/50, and another at 558/560/48.

it would say:
direct route:
distance: 141.42 sectors
warp-factor: 5
travel time:2 days, 22 hours
fastest route:
distance: 151.57 sectors
average warp-factor: 11.42
travel time: 1 day, 9 hours
directions: travel to 455/445/50. upon arrival, travel to 558/560/48. after 1 day, 4 hours (position 548.8/550.8/48.2) reroute to 550/550/50.

I Like that Idea too. Maybe that can also be applied to transwarp gates and the mobile transwarp gate? I like all the ideas said by Senor and Dumenop.

But for the TTC I think we should also add a Vector Calculator. Many players already have one and those who don't should have the advantages as those who do.
