How about introducing a new criminal organization to the Shadowrun universe. I
have an idea but I want to know if this is a valid story idea.

It sort of depends on what the book will include... I am very much in favor
of street-level crime, not at the moment another Mafia/Yakuza-style
organization, but we can always see about that...

This could be a street-level crime organization. It could be a mixture of
mages, samurai, and deckers.

I have my own lists of chance encouters I use (using the old percental
roll) for occurances on the street for chance encounters which include such
occurances as a street sam (somebody you don't know) freaks out at zero
essence and starts doing crazy stuff in a restraunt, or you are an innocent
bystander in someone elses SR, to accidentally walking through the crowd in
a crowd shot for the local news. If anyone is intersted in these I can post
it to the list or we could work on a new list of chance encounters. (I roll
for these every 15 minutes of game time that I am bored or they are
traveling in an area that would attract weird encounters) Encounters are
only on 8's during the day and 6 at night using one die, so the chances are
that you would only having an event happen once in a while.

p.s. I'm going to be out of town for a few days so give me a little time to
get back to everyone.

Make it a submission for the new book, it sounds like something that might
be appropriate (not to mention like something from the CP2020 rulebook :)
