System ownership

What good it is to claim a system for your race? Is it done just via that "Update Sys Command" in the main ingame menu or are there also other ways?

In the galaxy map there is a dropdown box which lets you set "system ownership".
Give a man a fire and he's warm for a day, but set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life.

And does that anything else than maybe show racial fllags on the map or so?
Say, will NPRs try to go closer/not go closer depending on their traits and me being in neutral/my system? I guess some aggressive NPRs may be angered by me building so big flag pole ..and so they arrive faster.

No to both.

Which is a real shame imo; diplomacy would be much richer if it was possible to stake claims along with softer options such as "allies welcome" or "non-military ships welcome".

Yes agree claims would be nice.
The only effect I have seen it have is on what info is displayed on the galaxy map, depending on your settings it may not show you how many unsurveyed bodies/JP:s you have in a system you set as owned by another race.

I will add some form of territorial claims in C# Aurora.
