I agree on the universal cross-bans thing. Regular Goon and RP Goon are two quite drastically different beasts, and if there's that clause of "you fuck up on one you fuck up on both" might deter potential newcomers.
I'm extremely excited about Destiny, mainly because I feel like it'll give some of the subtler aspects of Goon gameplay (sneaky and subterfuge-focused traitors, the chain of command actually being worth a damn, and so on and so forth.
As for cross-department work, I think it should be available within reason. For instance, any Joe McSchmoe can smack someone with a medical patch or begin beating someone to death with a crowbar, but taking a security officer's gear and swinging it around or busting into and setting up Engineering as a Botanist and other such things are probably right out.
In addition to that, I always love it when a department decides to take in random staff assistants, be they security looking to form a militia, engineering looking for some people to check on the engine every now and then, the detective in need of an assistant, and so on and so forth. That sort of play should be encouraged, and the actual job of the staff assistant (that is, assisting the staff) should be something that comes into play so people who spawn as greyshirts don't immediately suicide because they know they're gonna be in for a boring round.
