I like that idea. Although, I'd imagine that most wallet software would then automatically send itself a transaction periodically to prevent it's Bitcoin from being reclaimed.
If lots of wallets did that then it would likely clog up the blockchain with lots of people sending money to themselves. But that wouldn't be a problem if Bitcoin was actually scalable.
