I don't really find AT&T's idea fascinating in any way. I think it's just them trying to get around the rules. I have no doubt that if something like that were set in place, they would apply enormous pressure on all their users to request priority for whatever they (AT&T & others) want. Most people who don't know anything about the internet will just do as they are asked because "It's for their own good" - as I'm sure AT&T will pitch it that way. I for one - want NO prioritizing. I DO want them to quit complaining about their infrastructure and just upgrade it.
