I was considering including something like this in my proposal (above). I think for unknowns it makes sense to start at zero for the price, though a more established author could possibly start at whatever their last book got up to.
Another interesting idea would be for authors to revise based on reader comments, and re-release a later revision of the book, possibly with a slightly higher price (or at the same price as the last revision had gotten to, but it would hopefully improve the price ranking more quickly with revisions).
