Getting a little off topic, but I think this is part of the problem. On non Australian airlines, passengers see people walking about the cabin and then tend to ignore the seat belt sign. I have even heard that some US airlines keep their seat belt sign on longer than necessary to keep the passengers out of the aisles to enable food service. I much prefer the rule that if the seat belt sign is on, it applies to all ( crew and passengers). It is then a consistent message, with no grey areas.
