Simple solution embarking: "All passengers who will not use the
overhead bins may board at will. If we catch you opening an overhead
bin, we'll take you off to board last." Then the call by rows.

Simple solution debarking: "Passengers with nothing in the overhead
bins may debark as soon as the Captain allows. Others shall wait
until the aisles have cleared."

Simple enforcement in newly-manufactured 'planes: Electromagnets
keeping the bins' doors shut until the appropriate time.

All I carry aboard 'planes is a portfolio about 12x18x½ inches and
weighs less than a pound unless I've put a book in it.

I don't rush to get my bags. I do whatever else I have to do, such as
getting a car or making a 'phone call first.
