Next ancillary wheeze

Transavia is now following FR by reducing the hand luggage allowance to 40 x 30 x 20 instead of the previous 55 x 45 x 25 (approx). Clearly they cannot (or don't want to) compete with FR by being very generous on hand luggage. I expect other carriers will follow in Europe.

What's the next substantial ancillary that will be widespread amongst airlines in Europe to bring in more cash ? Reduce hand luggage even further and risk EU Commission wrath (they've already said very publicly they are concerned about the matter) ? Something else ?
