Pro: Gives a reason for everyone to still run heroics, as EoH are going to be obsolete to those 80's that are running the late end-game content (or raids in general). Perhaps EoH would still be BoP, but you could buy BoA ones (Req. Level 80), at a 2:1 or 3:1 ratio (to prevent people to faceroll through heroics on their Ulduar geared main, and send all resulting badges to the alt).
Cons: Loss of experience on the toon in a new setting (heroics/raids).
I think this idea would best be suited to EoH
only
. Valor and Conquest stay BoP with no alternative.

I aggree with the above I could also add I wish that you could turn in 5 badges to upgrade to the next lvl so 5 EoH for 1EoV 5 EoV for 1 EoC

Maybe in the future when we are at like Emblems of Arthas's demise or something of the sort (stupid name I know) might they make the lower end badges BoA

Don't see it happen any time soon, and most likely not ever. After all, with the introduction of EoH, EoV and EoC, the old BoJ have become pretty much obsolete, and are still Soulbound.
I got to admit, I like the idea of being able to send 100+ BoJ from my main to my lvl 65 alt, to gear her up at 70, but if it hasn't happened by now, it probably will never happen.

I don't think it's a good idea as it would make it a trivial affair to gear up alts. It makes sense to have to put in the work with the actual character you want to gear up. It's really easy enough as it is, with a good enough selection of crafted gear and random boe items. On top of that it's not like it's hard to get into heroics farming the same day you turn 80.
Exactly just grind out a few thousand gold on your main and get boe gear. Most of it is equal or a little bit worse then nax 10/25 gear anyways.
Probly take you less time then getting and sending badges to a alt also.

To start with, i think Badges of Justice should be made BoA. That would breath life into the old BC content. Maybe patch 3.2 or later could make EoH bind to account then.

IF this were to be implemented, I feel that it should require
this
achievement (or higher).
I do see the problem of overgeared scrubs, but I feel that requiring that 500+ have been farmed on a main MAY lead to some knowledge of their class.
Maybe even put a limit to the number that can be "gifted" to each character like 60, 80, or 100.

Maybe if it was a transfer to character at 2 to 1 as it really is twice as quick to run a heroic with full geared 80s than fresh dings, so obviously it would be much easier for people to farm them so I don't think a 1:1 ratio would be fair.
What I would prefer would be more items like mounts, vanity pets, perhaps even profession recipes (secondary maybe?) that could be buyable with EoH (aside from the 200 emblem mammoth, which I already have and still 200 emblems to spare which I would happily half onto an alt), something to keep the farming worthwhile, or even things like the dalaran ring.
