Does anyone know if national rail are ever planning on accepting Oyster
cards for travel within London? I can see why they've go the readers at NR
stations with Tube interchanges but why do all the other gated stations have
them as well? If they do accept them will it only be for travel cards or
for single fares too? It would be quite useful for the occasional traveller
to have just one pre pay account for all public transport.

They already do, albeit with limited facilities for checking them.
Travelcards (weekly, monthly etc) only, no pre-pay.
