So a proper incorporation of advanced driver training into the licensing scheme, right?

Those wishing to obtain a U class licence will be required to complete an online training course.

Oh.

It's not much but it's a start.

Also having a separate licence class makes it easier to have laws specific to that class, higher penalties for speeding for example.

Personally I also think having a licence class like that should have a requirement (or at least a strong incentive) to do a performance driving course of some kind.
