If you make kickers' jobs harder by giving them narrower goalposts or otherwise differentiating, it'll make kickers more important in the game. A team with a dominant kicker will see the same advantage as a team with a dominant running back or wide receiver. I'm not quite sure I want that.

pretty much spot on. and i like the idea. kinda makes it more cool to be a kicker. i mean, they are often the top scoring player on teams in games, and when there is a final score like 15-9, the focus is oh man they had a great defense out there, when your kicker did put up 5 field goals, and gets no recognition half the time.
