I really like the idea of a co-op multiplayer. I think having sections of the map / building on the same map, with each player controlling their own group of colonists would be best. It should probably be hosted by one of the players, and likely not more than a few players at a time. I think most of the interaction would come from trading, helping in defense of eachother, and maybe even building a joint complex, with different players taking on different jobs.
I'm perfectly fine with this being a way-out-there goal for past official release, but I would also like to point out that it is mostly just adding the connectivity, developing multiplayer wouldn't detract from single player too much, as you're essentially still playing the same game, with all the same features.
