I reckon... F&I is that-a way.
Not a bad idea, but is really sort of complicated and convoluted, and would require a lot of dev time. I would wait until the POS revamp and see if that engenders passive ISK generation with potential for raiding.
Sounds fun, though, and I can't poke any glaring holes in it, which is more than I can say about most hip-fired "brilliant ideas". The biggest worry would be that this would collapse to tragedy of the commons.

Sounds a lot like hisec mining in a Hulk or Mackinaw these days. 
I meant "passive" as in how moon mining or research is passive. The fact that others can interfere (and easily, too, not like taking down a moon mining POS) is the one thing that makes me like this idea. I suppose I shouldn't have said "ISK generation" since this is neither an ISK sink nor a faucet, but... "asset generation" or "wealth generation" would fit it better.
Ed: The fact that it's coupled with a low/nullsec mining buff is the cherry on top.

Just struck me: the tears resulting from cloaky interdictors camping collectors (both theirs and not theirs) would be delicious.
