What you really need are boss tokens. Every boss drops X tokens, good for anything except tier gear on the loot list. Turn it at your given loot vendor. For tier gear, there's only 1 token, good for everyone, good for the gear slot. In the end, you'll just upset a different group of people; those that wanted random loot for the thrill of what might drop.
Badges for everything is interesting, but probably unlikely. You'd probably still want a loot table or else there's basically no new gear coming out of an instance until you've farmed it for X weeks. It also creates a potential lowered interest in hitting the raids until you can be assured of it being worth your time. Some may well just stick to heroics to gear up from all the badge gear.
We may see a continuation of the Sunwell system. A random loot table which can be used to turn things in for other items as well. If the push towards a more token-based system, I'm sure some will weep at the loss of random loot.
