My idea would be to deregularize spelling, so that what you come up with is 
basically a roman phonological alphabet, where there's a standard spelling for 
every possible sound in all the Englishes of the world, but there would be no 
standard, so that someone from Southern California would spell differently 
than someone from South Carolina (or southern England, southern India, southern 
Australia...).
