Bumping this thread as the Screeps SC extension is no longer working.
Having more information on the Market History page is something i really miss. Instead of the text "Resources sold" please consider implementing more information here so you dont have to click every single order to see the actual resources and amounts that where sold.
Would also love to see my structures in the Choose room dialog, makes it a bit hard to recognize my rooms when its only displaying the terrain in the selection dialog

I like both ideas of putting a minimum range from sources and decaying the containers from a harvest action. @U-238's idea of allowing the warp-containers to be closer but increasing cost seems like a good one (more remote mining options the better). I think the decay should be based on energy harvested from the action rather than the action/intent itself otherwise supersizing the harvesters could bypass much of the problem.
Even cooler if we get a new visualization in the client to "show" the sources reacting with the warp-containers when a source is harvested.
What if there is no minimum range for the structure itself, but the decay is dependant on the distance to the .harvest action, sort of like how towers are more effective on short ranges. This could allow WC directly adjacent to the source, but at a high decay cost, scaling down with the range to the source. Make it super expensive when close to the source, then lower costs based on longer distances.
Having to "man" the warp containers to cross room borders also feels a bit awkward. You would need to have a creep standing on the room borders and bounce between rooms, doing withdraws and transfers between them, sort of like a bucket brigade type system. Any way to make warp containers on room edges connect to each others without making it too OP?
I think the amount of warp containers in owned rooms needs to be higher than 2. You would want one at a central location, near your terminal/storage and that leaves just one at a room edge for connecting to other "networks" and makes it so you cant also use the warp container for other things like split bases, mineral harvesting, controller upgrading etc, sort of limits your options a bit with only 2 in my opinion. Maybe 3 for owned rooms and 2 for other rooms makes more sense.
Would need to be a fair distance to have much impact i think, adding a few carry parts to a miner to move 2 steps out to deposit would be pretty easy way to handle warp containers a few steps away from the source. Would probably see a miner/hauler hybrid of sorts if the distance gets a little bigger, which would be kinda cool i guess.
Point is just that the intention is to change how high level combat works (by limiting terminal bandwitdth to reduce the effectiveness of repair), but at the same time works as nerfs to civilian use cases. Both have ways of solving, but is more complex / require the use of power creeps where none were needed before.

The limitations on civilian uses are a side-effect but not too onorous. I don't think many people are sucking in more than 50 resources/tick sustained in any room other than temple rooms. For temple rooms, there's OPERATE_TERMINAL.
OPERATE_TERMINAL require a Power Creep though, and the temple rooms are not really spending a lot of time at RCL 8. I guess you could have the power creep travel back to a room with an operational Power Spawn once in a while to refresh.. Pretty sure i send more than 50 energy / tick when leveling new rooms as well. None of these are breaking changes, but still this does impact civilian use, where the intention is to limit combat sustainability.
Yeah, not so common 
Btw, you should join the slack, there is a pretty active community over there in the chat
Its not allowed to build that close to the room exits, most structures cannot be placed within 2 tiles from the exits. Exceptions are roads (and perhaps containers?)
Also that wall to the right of your arrow is a temporary wall that will go away once your zone is no longer a respawn/novice area. It should have a decay timer on it indicating when it will be removed.
