This is not something Google is "creating" just endorsing. This is easily implemented, but how many people are actually going to do this? Why would you provide free access to only Google users?
What it boils down to, is will this increase registration conversion rates at sites?
There's two sides to this; first off if showing the "first click for free" does increase the conversion ratio, then you should do that for everyone who visits your site, not just those coming from Google results.
Second off, if you decide to do this only for Google users, people are going to spoof their referer ID to get to your content for free, not just for the first click, but for everywhere this is enabled on your site, which seems like it would reduce registration rates.
I see absolutely no reason a website should choose to do this.

There seems to be some confusion here on this issue of cloaking. The distinction here is not between users and search engines, but between users coming from one place, and users coming from another. Google apparently wants its customers to have more access to your site than customers from elsewhere - which shouldn't come as a surprise.
*However*, if you allow googlebot to index the whole page, but only show a limited page to browsers (whether refered from Google or not), then it is cloaking.
Google would possibly (probably?) argue that it's okay as long as the googlebot indexed page has the same content as the page seen by users *when they click through from Google*
I wonder why anybody would want to implement this. Maybe some of the above enthusiasts could explain what good they see here?

Looks like a new therm should be coined for the things like that - the "content neutrality". Or rather, the lack of it in this case.
Also it's a pity Google has changed its stance on the cloaking. Time to update the webmaster guidelines?
Cloaking refers to the practice of presenting different content or URLs to users and search engines. Serving up different results based on user agent may cause your site to be perceived as deceptive and removed from the Google index.
Some examples of cloaking include:
* Serving a page of HTML text to search engines, while showing a page of images or Flash to users.
* Serving different content to search engines than to users.

Am I reading this right?
Website owners are now expected to reward users for using Google to navigate their site rather than the Website's own navigation.
A search for "site: www.restricted-content-here.com" and then opening all the documents in a new tab would seem to provide all "first click free" content, and when people figure this out, the only way those sites will make any money / signups is by having their valuable content unavailable through this system, and only having teaser content for free - Just like it is now.
Further to that, with this proposal, Google doesn't seem to be providing code for owners to use to filter these users, or treating the search traffic differently in any way. While it's not rocket science to implement, implying that this is a Google service seems dubious, as Google don't seem to be actually doing *anything* here.
I can see the benefit to general web users (In the short term perhaps), but what's the incentive for website owners to actually implement this? Are they going to be penalised in the search rankings if they don't?
I'm just a bit baffled - am I missing something important being offered here? I assume I must be, as Google usually offers well thought through products.

有妞妞的夢
2006在妞妞過世的時候, 我一直沒辦法接受永遠看不到她的事實, 剛開始每天睡覺的時候,都會祈禱妞妞會入我的夢.不過,我擔心太多了,妞妞在這兩年中,不知道自己跑進我的夢境幾次了.而且夢境越來越清楚,也越來越寫實. 雖然有的很好笑,例如: 妞妞變成馬了,我還是義無反顧的照顧她,幫她四處奔波找carrot, 但她的行為舉止還是跟狗一樣! sigh... 剛開始的夢境就是我抱著生重病的她,一直奔跑或是帶她出去玩. 這種只有一瞬間或是單一事件的夢境發生很多次. 接著,就是剛剛說變馬的夢境,雖然我在夢裡知道她是馬,但認定她就是妞妞,而她的行為也是妞妞.這個夢就有點複雜而且清楚,從我怎麼知道她是馬,知道她要吃什麼,去夢中的雜貨店還有萊爾富幫她找蔬菜,還跟老闆討價還價抱怨價錢太貴,然後一氣之下不買壞掉的蔬菜,帶她回家吃冷凍花椰菜,還命令kyle不可以再騎那隻馬了,因為她沒吃東西,
