RonRef, we discussed this for a good half hour. The consensus was that it could lead to quite a bit of confusion so they felt since we had good coverage in the past to hold off on this for now. Most felt it could turn into a firedrill if wings got confused as to whether the kicker was left or right footed, which changes depending on which way the team was going, etc. I said that's a question I asked of the coaches in my pre-game and could be easily mitigated.
Please by all means let us know how it works for you and whether you think you have better coverage once you're doing it.
Honestly, I like the new mechanic because I'm now a referee and can look directly at the holder / kicker with a perfect view. I'll deal with what I'm told though. It's not THAT big of a deal.
