IMO limiting models to below 1200 ft, line of sight (of either the pilot or a safety pilot with dual controls), and not for commercial purposes would be acceptable and in line with full scale aviation. If you wish to operate outside of those rules you need a license or special certificate. If you violate those rules face the punishment. The problem is there is very little force behind the FAA regulations. Basically pulling your ticket is the most severe punishment they have without invoking federal laws.
