Multi-homing is here to stay, in a big way. It will only become more popular, no matter how good the ISP's become, for a number of reasons. Any future protocol or policy discussions should take this as a given.
Please don't confuse "I need more than one pipe into the internet" with "my organization must place its prefixes into the default free zone". It is possible to effectively use multiple pipes into many ISPs without the cost to all of us that introducing your prefix into the DFZ has.
