  ....what will happen to the exclusive CW allocations.... 
 
 Except in the USA, most amateurs do not labor under "sub-bands" based on 
 mode.  As an example Canadian amateur have no such restrictions.  It's a 
 source of continuing wonder to me that the FCC continues to arbitrarily 
 slice and dice the bands based on mode, license class, power levels, and 
 similar artificial constructs of their imagination. 
 
I imagine that the "class" restrictions will fade soon. 
 
As for mode restrictions, see my comment on Dee's post...Perhaps 
if we consider these as "wideband" and "narrowband" allocations it 
would be more palatable to all (or at least more)?

 PS:  There are no "exclusive CW allocations" below 50MHz.
