Firstly, never make any kind of post on a fan, or even an offical site, with the sole intention of being seen by devolopers. It won't happen. You do nothing but waste hope.

On topic, I wholly disagree here. While the marriage mechanic is sorely lacking, a way to improve it would not be to add every person in the world as a spouse. Your reasoning here seems to be based around your spouse's use as a follower, but most of the people you suggest are already followers. It's rather redundant.

The marriage system would be better if it was more definitive and rewarding. More reason to have a spouse than some meager change every few days, free pie, and a leveling bonus that only occurs when all the planets have aliened. Make characters actually have a sexual preference and only be willing to marry you after you've done something really good for them. Not deliver their mail, then suddenly they become infatuated with you.
