That sounds... kind of creepy, really. Especially the "ideal world" version. More like a surveillance tool than anything "social". I mean, surely if you were being social with another character you'd just be standing where you'd have line of sight.

I picture it more like a comic book side panel with a 25ft radius. Not something you use to watch someone from across the zone.
As for the other part, you can already pull up a panel showing the person's face. I'd like to see the full 3-D model, or barring that, the rendered jpg version that shows on your costume selection panel. Lots of games allow this. There is nothing especially creepy about being able to see another character up close without tilting the main camera or standing right on top of them.
I would like a window of some kind where I can see other characters full-sized. This is mainly so that I can see their costume. Right now /info will show their head but not a lot else.
In an ideal world, the window would actually be some sort of social tool, where basically the window hosted a second camera trained on the other player and I could see every emote or action they take. But that might be asking for too much. Just the ability to see them without juggling the camera around would be fine.
