4.3 Gear Resets and LFR

I am loving LFR.  It's great to see content from this perspective.  But, as I posted previously, it came with a gear reset.  Blizzard needs to not punish the work of past raids by not having gear resets.   So, how to fix this?

It took me a moment to figure it out, but each raid level should work like this:

LFR for current tier minus 1, New Heroic 5-mans for just below current tier.
Tokens for each tier.

Players must progress, but they have LFR to help them progress.

346 -> 353 -> 370 -> current content.

LFR not on current content so current content is still slow.

Raids: 359 -> 378 (LFR Here) -> 397.

Player is behind.... he can LFD up to 370 and LFR to 378.

No gear reset required.
