While I understand the desire to recover costs associated with formally 
setting up a new org in the database.  I would suggest that we don't 
want create a significant financial disincentive for members to not 
appropriately create detailed reassignments for organizations where they 
should be created.

I suggest that an existing member could be permitted to 'sponsor' 
orgcreation for a number of new orgs per 'year'.  e.g. an X-Large member 
could sponsor the orgcreation of 10 new orgs for the purpose of detailed 
reassignments per year.

I realize this is perhaps more complicated than just a fee per org creation.
