I'm really conflicted on this topic: I do agree there is much value to be had from asking at least one question per conference... but what would happen if all attendees had the same attitude.
Aside from massive lines to the microphone, the main concern is that really important/pressing questions might be lost because more eager beavers got up to the mic to ask their token 'must as at least one' question first.

If someone actually does run to the microphone, I won't try and beat them (unless I have a question that I really want to ask). It's not that I need to ask a question -- I'm happy as long as someone asks a question."
