In Canada we never use the wind signal at the end of play. In situations where the WH needs to know if the play should start on the snap the sideline official would communicate this with an inbounds (palms down in front of body) or an OOB (thumbs over shoulder) signal.

I could see problems in your mechanics where in the last few seconds you need to stop the clock and signal that it will start on the ready. You could easily lose precious time.

I don't see it as that big of a deal. If you lose too much time, you can always reset the clock.
Accumulated over a game, you could lose many many seconds!
If it get's me into the bar quicker for a post-gae beveridge then it's my new favourite mechanic.

We need this in Canada, eh Chris and Mike?
bottoms up!
