I think "gift to" would be a nice alternative when having to withdraw
units from friendly territory. It also might be fun to stage proxy
wars ;-)

I don't know how they did the Great People thing, my idea would be
something like this:

Characters get randomly generated per city and you exchange them
between cities by travel with an upper limit given by city size and
city literacy. When you manage to match up 3 great people of
complementary skills, you either finish a research project appropriate
for them or at least get a big bonus on it.

Of course, you could swop characters in the diplomacy dialog ;-)
