there should be more information about factions on the world map, if i click on a settlement there should be a bit of text that shows my current standing with that faction

How about a small list on the top left, like the where the colony inventory is ..

Faction-Icon [Number of Locations in Brackets] ( in Faction Colors )  - Faction Name [ actual value of standing in Brackets ] ( colored according to standing )

Just like the Faction overview :)

Also visible after world-gen when looking for a landing site.

Actually, i wpuld prefer if you didnt know where factions or their settlements were until you find them. Except maybe tribal starts knowing one or two near their spawn?
Anyone else felt their heart break when a pawns marriage falls apart?

I would like that too, then the number next to the faction symbol represents the number of locations you have found.

Or one use for silver .. you could buy locations from traders.

They should be allowed to 'question' prisoners for the locations with a success/fail based on the social skill of the pawn.  You just don't know if it was a success or pass until you send a caravan to the map location ... Town, Ambush or Tumbleweeds ...
