Another item they could monetize like this is the boarding order. If CO heavily marketed an option to board anyone with F and ahead of elites provided they pay for it, it would reduce available overhead space and force some elites to consider paying for early boarding as well.
UA already sells a product that does some of this, Premier Travel.
