Whilst unpopular with a ‘relatively’ small number of personnel in the overall scheme of things, you just know that anything else will be spun as public sector workers boosting existing gold plated arrangements whilst the private sector gets screwed yet again as their taxes pay for the boost. I make no comment on the validity of those arguments, but merely suggest it would invariably put public sector pensions back into an unwelcome limelight at a time of financial uncertainty.
