Thumbs up Computer Based Exams for JAA?

Why aren't CAA/JAA exams computer based (like the FAA ones) ?
Are there any plans to move to a computer based system?
Since questions are multiple choice, they can be marked instantly.
The exams can be done at anytime at an approved centre. and even though it might take some financial investment to set up, it will save the CAA/JAA ( and probably the candidates) a lot of money in the long run.
Students will be able to go through their training much quickly as they don't have to wait for specific dates to do their exams. I also believe marking is instant so you dont have to wait for months for your results.
Just my thoughts, what do others think?
