What I was suggesting is rather similar to the kludge performed on MS-DOS once the need for more than 640K of memory became apparent and the developers wished to retain compatibility with legacy apps.
So basically something similar that was announced for AmigaOS4? I'd avoid any such "dirty hacks".
Of course a good compromise could be to use the "unusable" memory internally by the OS, so it won't be exposed to end users and 3rd party developers.
