I say this in all sincerity, knowing that our next JER-LGW is in ET ... but our carryons go under the seat in front anyway! Oh ... Exit Row seats, so a quick Gold rush to get them inro the overhead will be needed (above OUR seats)

I agree, but there will likely be a lot of wailing and gnashing of teeth from frequent fliers indignant about being made to wait whilst occasional travellers in CE on redemptions and those on cheapo POUGs are allowed to board first.
