Would be nice to hear what a dev or mod has to say about that though. I don't think it would be too much work since the rosters are already made up from the guilds just have to combine them with each alliance ( Then again I'm not the one that has to code it in either 
)
you dont even need to combine the rosters at all simply add a tab next to the ingame guild roster in the window it would display the allied guilds and their online/offline members (could be toggled like in the standard guild roster)
Then there is the matter of alliance chat a seperate channel could be created while also giving guild in the alliance the option to transmit what is said in guild chat to alliance (and vice versa) as long as the reciving guild also has that option enabled.
It achieves almost everying a guild merger would accopmlish except for merging the guild halls and leaders.
