At first I thought this was a pipe dream, but then remembered that the old US Air shuttle actually did this! A FA (usually a taller male) would stand right at the boundary between F and E, and would keep people from putting stuff in the F bins if they were seated in E, and I remember hearing/seeing them tell passengers seated near the back that they had to take their bag with them and could not put it above the first few rows of E.
