This is a really cool idea. One additional challenge is that CMP is currently used for many administrative functions: announcing big changes, presenting top-tier awards, giving important speeches, etc. These things would either have to be split or repeated amongst each of the super-regionals, or they'd have to find another venue. Also, I imagine it would be tougher to invite a super-VIP to an event that's not necessarily the year's premier event.
