To enhance squadness, how about a symbol on the right side of names showing what kind of gun they have, forge, HMG, ar, swarm, in vehicle etc.
Or maybe have a setting where players can add a symbol to their name in chat windows, so once again you are able to see someone's weapon preference and build a better squad from match one.

Maybe scout assault or heavy, specific type may be just that, too specific. If someone is rocking amarr, I would rather know they have sniper or a mass driver.

I can't say knowing what Type of suit someone is in is "being too specific." Especially if you don't know the race. I think I would rather have that than know what weapon they're using.
Well, then I think a filter would be appropriate. You know what information you need, and you should thus be able to see it to make the best in game inferences you can.

The primary issue being that because of the vast customization we're allowed our fits can be super crazy and having icons for those would be hell.
How about this, certain weapons could generate their own icons.. for example; The second your fit has a sniper rifle you gain a "sniper" icon instead of a regular suit-based one. Same would be for Forge guns and Swarms (Possibly Plasma Cannon too) gaining an "AV" icon. Rep tool fits gain a "Medic" icon.
My original idea was to have the icons tied to each fitting separately but that could cause some confusion as some people switch roles several times throughout a match.
Fantastic idea! I vote for your rendition!
