Hello,
this is new for me that no yy open are allowed anymore in 2007.

Also not paying the fuel charges and taxes is one reason trying to get open tickets- In many cases Check in agent forget it simply.
Not paying this extra charges sometimes an fully open fare ticket is not so much more anymore vs. a (slightly) discounted ticket binding you to a carrier or carrier group (nicely they call it market fare).
Also there is the possibility to have a validity which is more than one year for the paid price- at least i had this case once.
