Idea! How to make bounties more engaging!

My friends and I were discussing how repetitive the bounties for PvE are (also Crucible, but um, that's another story) and we kind of had the idea to spice them up a little, and add some content to the game long the way. Not all bounties, but maybe a couple along the way, have stories behind them. You can already see this model with the exotic bounties, and I think simplifying this down to daily bounties is a great way to make players feel more engaged in the universe. [u][b]Example:[/b][/u] [b]Step 1:[/b] [i]A Fallen Captain is making moves to secure key portions of the Cosmodrome on Earth, recently liberated by Guardians. Scout the area for information. [/i]- Go to appointed area, complete a couple of scout patrols. Turn in bounty, receive next step. [b]Step 2:[/b] [i]Analysis of your scouting indicates the Captain is named [whatever]. He's running his operation from the Lunar Complex in Skywatch. Track down and eliminate him and as many of his minions as you can find. Bounties will be paid for eliminating his lieutenants.[/i] - Start at patrol start, kill Vandals or other Captains, get glimmer or small amounts of rep, track him down and kill him. Turn in bounty, receive final step. [b]Step 3: [/b][i]With Captain [Whatever] dead, you'll need to eliminate some of his assets to ensure a successor doesn't have the resources to pick up where he left off.[/i] - Complete X public events in Mothyards, Divide and Forgotten Shores. Turn in bounty, get an Ascendant Shard or something better than just rep and XP. Something people NEED. This is obviously just an off-the-top-of-my-head example, but it seems like something that's implementable using the current systems and bounty variables Bungie already has in place, just with some extra text. To me, this would make me feel like at least some of my bounties are contributing to the universe, rather than just fusion rifling thralls as they come out of the Temple of Crota, or running around the Moon punching everything to death. What do you guys think?
