Ghost spawners for various things

This is a suggestion using currently existing content, and requires players not to be shitty, which is have the option like with xeno spiders, to click on an entity and become it, without giving constant prompts to ghost.
Here's what I would suggest should be on the list
Listening Post
Ruskie Station DJ (as long as there is no space suit on Ruskie station)
Ian, Runtime, HoS's spider on Meta.
Antagonists on Centcomm Z-level that can't effect Centcomm shuttle, Supply shuttle or Escape Shuttle, so people can get a chance to learn controls for antagonists that they don't get to play (examples include Morph, Space Ninja, Alien Queen, etc.)
All of these have the downside of not being straight ressurection without any downsides. Listening post is a syndicate and will likely never be dealt with.
DJ can only talk to the station, not really interact with it
Rest are simple mobs

Idea is already dead in the water.

DJ job and/or somthing like that was already suggested by many players, though personally i think that a random person who has nothing to do but to shit over comms and who you can't reach is no good. Also about the other spawners - as long as you're not ghosted you can't be cloned or even get a notification about you being cloned/whatever, and this is kinda ruining shit for someone sometimes. People will abuse it if it ever gets implemented, just as with everything else, so expect two or three weeks of skeleton crew, all playing as an antag in centcomm(as if you can't run local server)
