While it's not an issue in big, busy bathrooms like Arrowhead Stadium, it's a waste of space and fixtures in most typical office or work environments. What's wrong with putting the stall walls all the way to the ground so that underwear and feet aren't visible, and adding a little "occupied/unoccupied" dealybob that rotates when someone locks the door? Urinals could be in a similar type of privacy enclosure.
This would save a lot of space and cost in most work environments, and I see no reason why both genders can't share a sink and washup area. Maybe this wouldn't work in night clubs, where different genders may need private primping areas as well as private spaces for Panthers cheerleaders, but again, I'm talking about your typical office or work environment where bathrooms are usually running at about 10 percent of capacity.
What do you think? Would this bother you? Or would it be no big deal?

There's no way that females would want a strange man next to them taking a dump.
That, and since women go to the restroom in clumps of women, I don't think this idea will fly.
