I've always been a fan of keeping a few traditional regionals around like back in the "Open" days, even with 90+% of FRC in the district system. Have a Midwest, Southwest, Pacific, Southeast, Northeast, Hawaii, Eurpoean, and Pan-Pacific "Open" that stick around. Just like regionals, but outside of teams that have to go there, other teams can apply to go to the open tournaments.
