ATC Watcher, whilst I agree with your point of view, can we just clear one thing up:

...but Primary radar (where they sill have it) and the lazy controllers will not help in class E, since it is uncontrolled airspace by definition...
Class E is by definition controlled airspace. ICAO Annex 11 "Controlled airspace. An airspace of defined dimensions within which air traffic control service is provided in accordance with the airspace classification. Note - Controlled airspace is a generic term which covers ATS airspace classes A, B, C, D and E as described in 2.6"
