It's not changing a rule, it's changing a process. Since you can't trade the compensation picks, knowing or not knowing won't really effect anything. How you go about offering fallback wouldn't change under option #2 (which seems like what we're discussing at this point).
All GMs have to do is offer fallback if they want to and wait to see if he gets signed. If you're going after the comp players, you're still going to lose your 5th, 6th, and possibly 4th round picks.
