i'd love to see a proposal which would do the following (just an example; numbers just fallen out of my head):
- if a miner makes a block bigger than 1mb he cant collect the whole reward/fees
- the part of the reward which the miner could not claim should be distributed to nodes (a way i can imagine to do this is that the first node relaying a transaction encodes his address in it and gets a part of the reward)

Not sure that this would be of any use, it'd just incentivize miners to keep higher connectivity in order to bypass relaying nodes and receive transactions directly, not make smaller blocks.

well higher connectivity alone is a good thing.

to still keep an incentive for smaller blocks we could implement that not all of the rewarddiff is distributed to nodes; just half of it (and the rest is lost)
