A couple of things that I would like to see.
1) Ignore the abomination that was Voyager.
2) Less involvement from Brannon and Braga.
3) The Universe is a big place. Let's go in another direction than left (Klingons), right (Romulans), or ahead (Cardassians). Let's try back, up or down.
4) Cumulative effect of actions.
5) Take on uncomfortable social issues. A Star Trek version of the Middle East would be crazy, and relevant. How about starting the series with a migrant crisis from a previously ignored or unknown sector?

BSG meets Star Trek.
Not to many migrants left though...
They should definitely explore other races though. Maybe some new tech that creates a stable wormhole to a distant galaxy that the Federation thought was mostly empty but full of resources.
