As long as this is well-thought out, I'm fine with it. However, our government is not very adept at "well-thought out". So, I'm looking to be disappointed.

There are many cases where Service Members who - though deployed overseas supporting trigger pullers and others - never work farther than 10 feet from the nearest air conditioned office.

While deployed some time ago (to a country not in USCENTCOM), one of my teams had an element moving, via rotary wing from point A to point B. That aircraft (not US) came under fire and received several impacts along the fuselage. Another team occasionally received rocket attacks to the base they worked out of. Everything was reported up to higher and so forth, based on established procedure, of course.

But, my point is that it makes a lot of sense for those guys to get "Danger Pay". Now, for guys working in the same country, but never leaving the city (the same city where their families - wife/kids - live, work and play everyday), should probably not get "Danger Pay". If we are going to save money, then, that might make sense.
