A rule like “only fence if paved and lighted” could be used – but I bet someone would find exceptions even to that.

Do you think it will be possible in the near future?

There are special cases where this is desirable. It could be a large area between two taxiways far apart that should not be affected by any flattening, airport ground textures, the lack of forrests etc.
