Well, Tommi. I share your concern that many youngsters won't evolve into better players. And I'm not only talking about Italians here. Naturally you especially want that for the national team which I can understand.
Mikkel, How could this hurt Real Madrid when they have such a fantastic youth sector? Just look at the players they produced or helped produce: Raul, Guti (Hierro? Not sure though) comes to mind. They will have an edge over Barca if these changes would occur.
About the financial aspect of it I think it would hurt certain top teams. But not to the point where they would bankrupt. Another good thing speaking for these changes would be that the smaller clubs would again have better chances against the bigger sides like in the good old days were football wasn't so much about money. We would see sides like Sampdoria actually with a chance of winning Lo Scudetto.
Football would benefit from these changes since there would be more better players and the overall level of play would rise in the respective countries. Both on a club and national level. But it would sorta take the excitement and charm out of the involvement of money in the sport, which I believe it or not, actually finds thrilling.
So yes, this won't be all that bad if it happened on a footballing basis. But a defeat for human means in football.
