I think this is a good idea, and that it has passive support from people now
but isn't on people's minds.  It's always hard to get people to implement a
plan significantly different from the status quo... I'm not sure we are
closer to that tipping point now than before, meaning that it would take
someone to campaign for such a change, and address complaints and challenges
levied against it.
