A thing that could be fun is having (optional) markers for some modal information (or some other thing pertaining to the whole verb phrase), whose distribution follows alignment-like patterns (these markers affix to nouns). A language with several different patterns like those could be pretty cool, e.g. some markers are ergative-like in distribution, some accusative-like, some nominative-like, some absolutive, some maybe secundative, etc.
