I think it is a great idea. Like I said, I think most new players want to "belong" to something, but the existing cabals are hard to break into for a new player. So a cabal where we could all get together and form groups would be really helpful.

I do think something that transitions into the cabal wars would be fun, but my bigger issue was finding a group of people who were like-minded, which your proposed cabal would serve well.
