I would have to agree with Keith WE6R, the FCC has been on a roll 
here lately re-banding several different frequency bands, why not 
reband the 10m band to accomodate more repeater pairs?

One thing some people seem to be missing in this thread... at least I 
haven't seen anyone else mention it... are the numerous 10m 'remote 
bases' that are out there.  Even though according to one ARRL 
official "if a repeater is linked in any manner to 10m; the 10m 
frequency must be within the 10m repeater sub-band."  

Just my two cents worth......
