You are currently allowed to apply in up to three zones,,,, Perhaps that would not have to change and you can build priority in up to 3 zones. If you are unsuccessful you would have bumped your priority in 3 zones. Then if one zone closes you still have priority in 2 other zones. Once drawn, you start as P0 in all zones.
At any rate, eliminating the 999 and building priority by zone would force applicants to be far more "serious" in their draw applications.
Additionally, it would be much easier predicting when you would be drawn in a zone. You would know the size of the priority pool you are in and have a much better idea of how many applicants are ahead of you.
