I like the open hand on the held ball. Something I along with many other officials have already been doing. Get that hand up so everyone can see you have a call, move quickly to the scene of the scrum with better presence, and then you can signal the held ball secondarily once the dust settles. Good change.
On another note, despite the multitude of wild-eyed change ideas in the survey every year, it’s remarkable how static the rules have been in recent years (Rule 3 and signals stuff notwithstanding).
