I think that the death penalty should be an option... like a general "hardcore mode" for the game that you select when you start your character.

Speaking for myself, I enjoy the fact that there is very little stress in playing WoW. I'm the very definition of a casual player and if I kept getting my XP/gold/gear smacked down when I died, I might feel less inclined to fire the game up when I want to escape the real world.

A "hardcore mode" option could be toggled for truly hardcore players, those who go into a game like WoW for reasons more complex than "I don't want to think about my crappy job right now."
