For my own purposes, not at all. I'm quite happy writing D20 stuff and 
playing totally within the rules. I'm not interested in forcing WOTC to 
change the license, and I certainly don't want to get them generally 
p****d.

My interest is more 'theory of game design' than anything else. Mostly, 
I'm looking for a rebuttal to "All D20 (STL-compliant) games *HAVE* to 
be class/level" -- if one exists.

And, as noted, I simply like to play with ideas. I do not believe such 
thought-experiments are harmful to the license, as I greatly doubt I 
will ever come up with anything which hasn't been considered by WOTCs 
lawyers long ago.

I think as D20-based games aquire market share of their own, we'll see 
more OGL/non-D20 supplements. I can imagine, in a year, a "Spycraft 
Advanced Players Guide" or a "Dragonstar Deluxe" which leverages the 
recognition gained from the D20 logo into a truly standalone game. 
(These are arbitrary examples; I have no reason to believe either 
product has even been considered at the appropriate companies.)
