I'm one of those people who came up with this idea "independently" years ago. I think it's great, but I also honestly think that it's even less likely to happen than "full-fledged marriage for all." I'm not sure it will be to the gay-rights movement's advantage to push for this option. I'm afraid that too many people in the anti-gay-rights movement camp will turn it into, "Wait, now you're telling me that I can't get married?" (or, worse, "Now you're telling me that I'm not married anymore?")
