I'm not a key person, just a fan (and recently a coach), but I'll state my preference.

My first preference would be to eliminate eligible receiver numbering, and to substitute a system like that used in Arena football and some versions of touch football for the eligible lineman whereby the ends would have to hand-signal briefly their presence on the ends of the line, some time between the last shift and the snap of the ball, to be eligible to receive a forward pass.

Failing that, my second preference would be to have some other way of accommodating ineligible numbering in kick formations -- either that of the NFL and some adult minor leagues of reporting eligible, or the former method of wearing an over-jersey with "correct" numbers.
