I would applaud such a decission. we can see how things go on that front. if there are free replacements which can display e.g. prosper or latex-beamer slides correctly in free pdf-viewers i think it would be a good thing to us those. However, if I was in the situation that I as a speaker had to pick between using a software I did not like on a conference-provided notebook and my own notebook with a non-free viewer or give the talk without slides, I would do the latter.
