So, the Mass limit which decrements seems like an idea that could use some small tweaks.
First of all you need to stop capital ships using wormholes to jump to empire, so making sure that all K-W links are below this mass seems like a good idea. But that really makes K-W holes short lived because they'll be so much smaller than nullsec holes.
Since expired holes respawn randomly this would lead to a darwininstic bias that will tend to make more wormholes occur in low and nullsec space.
So, have a mass cap which represents the largest object that can go through, this would have no relation to the mass limit, so wormholes could be relatively stable but only allow smaller ships through.
Of course, this does rule out freighters, but since freighters have severe limitations on manipulating cargo I don't see these being the best things to bring to W-Space anyway.
Furthermore, wormholes should decay on their own so that wormholes with a small mass allowance remaining don't wait days to timeout. I imagine there will be few people prepared to use a wormhole which has one jump left in it, so these will hang around until they despawn.

So given that this space is completely removed from empire and concord doesn't have a window into it, does that mean that the rats there won't give bounties?

I have to say I'm kinda fond of the idea of an evil pirate corp setting up base in one of these systems and bringing terror wherever the exit wormhole opens up.
Reminds me of some crappy SF stories where terrors lie in the void and one day this wormhole comes to earth. |

-->would<-- be SOCOOL if you'd suddenly pop out of a new wormhole that is just spawning in the middle of a fleet fight,
Now.... just imagine what might cause a tear in the fabric of spacetime.... some massive release of energy.... like multiple Doomsdays going off on the same grid.

T3 is CRUISER SIZE HULLS only.
I know CCP have been showing off the ships, but I haven't heard any comment from them regarding the addition of T3 modules.
