I'd say just put checkboxes to allow/disallow mirror matches in automatch & basic matches.
In automatch, it could be a little box that you tick if you want to allow the automatcher to put you up against the same faction you're playing as. If you don't want mirror matches, you just leave it unchecked.
In basic, the host could have a similar checkbox to allow/disallow players to pick factions individually instead of it being team-based. Then add a filter so players looking for non-mirror match games can skip them as they please.
Simple as that in my eyes. I personally like the diversity of fighting different factions, but I can understand competitive players wanting to be allowed to pick whatever faction they want, and for casual players to just fuck around with different faction matchups.
