I would be a bit surprised if they did this considering every team can drop their bumpers low enough to prevent any incursions (at the cost of mobility, potentially). Also because a team can always just carry 2 balls when driving around the field, they do not have to carry 3.
In contrast to 2010 where incursion was a specific rule as you say, in 2012 a robot can legally drive over a ball, only other choices/avoidable scenarios make this potentially illegal.

I urge them to build the kitbot and repeateadly smash it into a concrete wall in order to sate their anger. It will soon wane when they manage to do more damage to the wall than to the kitbot. That is honestly the reason that we ended up using the kitframe this year. - Andrew Blair [more]
