Whilst I disagree with A320riders "student pilot" issue, as this is patently not the case, the purchasing of line time effectively makes you a prostitute (harsh words but well deserved) and the airline a customer and the training organisation a pimp.
This is the thin of a wedge, and unless fought now will rapidly become the norm. In a few years time the "Integrated+100hrs Jet" (a la Stapleford/Astraeus) will become "Integrated+500hrs Jet". SSTR's are almost the norm already (I thank Southwest for that, although they to their credit have seen the light).
Although an accident under these circumstances is certainly not more likely, if it were to occur it would I think force some legislative framework in place, which might not be a bad thing.
