Hmmmm... it's an interesting idea if nothing else. Problem is, as soon as you advertise something like this there's gonna be a bunch of people who turn up simply for nothing more than the pleasure of pissing on your bonfire.
If it works, could be fun, but will it work? More than likely no.

So people fly nothing but the most ridiculously expensive ships? The thing is, it's only really worth it if there's some value to the ship you're flying.

Doing this through WHs involves way too much work to be worth it and you also have external variables you cannot control. AKA uninvited guests from the depths of space 
Nope, because you alienate everyone who can't get in highsec due to sec status issues, not to mention FW aggro, things like this... best in lowsec tbh.

Why does everyone keep saying "Highsec"? Pretty much all of the solo/small gang PvPers reside in lowsec and have a low security status because of this way of life. You will be alienating a large portion of the people who would participate in this by making it highsec only.

Making this agent system would legitimise the conflict in hisec and encourage people to try out PvP there, gradually acclimatising them to the "way of life" you suggest without the sec status hit. This will make them more comfortable about going into Losec, being better equipped for PvP and allowing them to enjoy it more.
Firstly, lowsec isn't that dangerous if you don't fly like an idiot. Other than instagib gatecamps you've not really got anything to worry about.
Secondly, lowsec is mostly uninhabited and dead. We do need more to stimulate PvP in this area.

It's a term that originated in Quake (IIRC) that's short for insta-killing. Basically a gate camp you can't escape from that'll kill you very quickly.
