I think the problem lies in the masses of gamers that can't seem to grasp the stacking rules. I've played 3e since its inception and never had a problem.

Uhm...if "masses of gamers" have difficulty with a specific rule, is that a problem with gamers, or with the design of the rule?
BTW, I suspect most problems with the stacking rules have little to do with the underlying mechanic, but with having too many types. In the middle of a game, I have enough trouble keeping straight the total bonuses people have, much less what type they are, what stacks with what, which bonuses have which durations, etc.
Of course, if I gamed with a laptop, perhaps this wouldn't be a problem, but since I don't...

Actually, I scrawl the numbers on the battle mats, but that gets a bit messy after a while...

Understandable, I do the same with initiative and hit point totals. Perhaps a legal pad would be more to your liking?
