Crystarium Salute? (Also the tabard.)

So this is like...pie-in-the-sky levels of hope for me, but I'd really love to be able to get the Crystarium salute at some point. It happens to be my favorite city, and it'd be nice to finally be able to have it as a full emote to use. Not just for my main, but I happen to have an NPC alt for Lyna, and it'd be lovely to have. I'll take it as a reward for quests or PVP, but it'd be great to finally have it. The same with other such salutes we don't have as emotes yet, but I think most of them might exist? I honestly don't know.

I would...also like a version of the Crystarium Tabard without the pauldrons. I think it's fine as is, but it's a little goofy to see the twins (and other guard NPCs in the Crystarium )getting the version without the huge shoulder pads and then your character has them. It's not a deal breaker, but it'd be nice to have a version without them. I am aware of ways to make it happen as is, but I'd love to see it properly in game. I'd take it as a crafted piece, even, or something you have to do in-game things to obtain like a variant dungeon piece or PVP or something.

Like I said this is me totally leaning into wishful thinking, but it's something I've wanted for a long while (probably since like. 5.3 release) and would love to see someday.

I guess the question for discussion here is:
Would you want these in game? If so, how would you want it to be obtained?

Every single piece of the Crystarium guard gear has an alternate version and I would like to have access to it.

From memory:
helmet without face guard

tunic without pauldrons

different length of gloves

boots without armour

I prefer the less armoured versions.

Well, we don't have the Crystal Braves salute, but........
