Default 529 Sunset Provision

In looking into saving for college, one finds the 529 plans as a primary vehicle.

Having a three year old, it sounds great to start early and save often, but what has stopped me is that their tax-free benefits expire in 2010. Before my daughter reaches high school...

Ya, I know that politicians will want to extend it "for the children", but demographics seem to be against this occurring. Namely, won't Boomers' children will be out of college?

So for you 529-ers out there, is this of concern to you? How do you reconcile the uncertainty of the sunset provision?
