Instead of the power of Projection, what other power could/should Billie have got that was powerful, but not to the extent of Projection? Maybe something like Premonitions, Time-Travelling, Invisibility or even Telepathy, but in that case Christy would have to get something else, maybe the power to control Lightening?

Well in my fanfiction series future wise although it hasn't been written yet I've given Billie mind control which mirrors her sisters telepathy power and something that can be used at the same time as telepathy which's all she has there so no telekinesis or anything as that was used so often in the show originally and the fact this particular power wasn't seen used by other witches on the show hardly which I like better there.

I don't think that telepathy and mind control is exactly in line with what good witches are supposed to be. "Harm none, do as ye will." I think mind control would definitely be in violation of this rule. It would also interfere with the whole free will thing. As for telepathy, we did see some versions of it. The spell that Prue & Piper casted in one of the early seasons allowed them to hear peoples thoughts, and it did cause a lot of problems. Even think of how Phoebe's empathy was so frustrating for the sisters, because Phoebe would call them on how they were feeling before they were even ready to tell.
I think for Billie, I would honestly have liked telekinesis and astral projection. I have always liked to think of Billie as an ode to Prue, since the characters are so similar and strong willed. However, I hated Kaley Cuoco's performance and adored Shannens..

Astral Projection, force fields, flight/levitation perhaps. I know they seemed to have forgotten that powers are supposed to progress and not just appear at random by this point in the series, but I'd still quite like something a bit more telekinesis-esque.

I liked Billie having the power of Projection because everyone in the show saw her as ditsy weak blonde who couldn't really do anything. So when she got the power Projection it really made people think twice about going after her.
But if I had to chose an alternate power for Billie I would have given her Telematerialization or I would have taken Christy out of the show entirely (since the network forced that character into the show) and given Billie Telepathy or Pyrokinesis or even Conjuring the Elements.
