According to Vitalik (creator of Ethereum) that will happen at the end of fall 2016. All fees are taken upfront instead of during the lifetime of the contract. That will enable miners to have better control on profit.

Ethereum is a distributed platform. It allows participants to write and enforce their own “smart” contracts. It is sometimes also referred to as “Bitcoin v 2.0”. The cryptocurrency protocol was developed by Vitalik Buterin in 2013. The protocol received wide support by community and professionals. The first sale of Ether coins (the currency of Ethereum) raised over $15 million (current market cap about $1.000.000.000, February 2016).
Ether is necessary to operate on the decentralized platform Ethereum. Ether are used as payments by the clients of the platform to get Ethereum execute requested operations. Ether is a way to avoid spam programs and that the network remains healthy.
