I'd rather see more mini roundabouts, yield signs, and elimination of useless four way stops than a change in the law to treat cyclists differently. If an intersection is safe to roll through, why limit it to cyclists?
I feel a little inconvenienced by a few stop signs, but not much, and I think the political fallout and backlash of giving special rights to cyclists would make such a change a net loss, especially in anti-cycling cultural regions like where I live.
