@webflorist, you’ll be in for a treat next week 
As for the second question, that might be worked on later, once after we have a dedicated free plan in place that’s robust enough.
First of all many thanks for the update!
But let me get this straight:
You will introduce Horror Bill protection for non-paying customers, while paying customers MIGHT get it sometime later?!
I’m sorry, but i’m pretty flabbergasted by this. I believe your company is still severly underestimating the importance of this feature for your current and potential customers. Having to explain an unexpected bill to a client even in the 100s - not even talking about 1.000s or 100.000s is the stuff of absolute nightmares. You are aready far behind your competition regarding this.
I must say, that this feedback will most definitely make Netlify a non-viable partner for us and our clients.
While not directly addressing this feature request, there’s some good news for anyone seeking to ensure they don’t incur any charges.
Netlify have released a new guaranteed ‘Free’ plan, where instead of being charged overages your site is suspended, (for the remainder of the calendar month), once any monthly limits are exhausted.
It’s effectively a ‘Starter’ plan without the risk of overages.
