Today I got a "Request an upgrade for your upcoming trip to Miami" email, featuring a link direct to my account, and lo and behold, there was R availability on one of the legs. I passed on using miles or RPU; will take my chances with CPU, but this was the first time I've received such an email and this feature might actually be worthwhile, particularly if they'll send such emails for international BF/GF itineraries on which GPUs can be used.
