I would not object to a law banning establishments from requesting tips before service has been provided.

They shouldn't request tips at all. Tips only should be provided if a customer feels like the service was above and beyond normal.

Sure, but that's a societal and cultural change. I'm talking about a legal change.

I'm sure the invisible hand of the free market will sort it out and arrive at an optimal solution soon.

At payment wait staff will tip the customer. Whoever tipped highest wins bourgeois status for the day.
