I'm with the OP in that you shouldn't make exceptions then get on the loudspeaker on the next flight to scream at people doing it on their own initiative.
[MENTION=748694]VictorSierra[/MENTION] it's not the bumpiness, but the fact that a sudden slamming on the brakes would send people and luggage flying.
I personally would sue an airline if a bag was dropped on my head based on flight attendant guidance to do it before arrival to the gate...
