As a famous boxer once said, "Remember there are no rules..." I
think that it's a great idea and would promote repeat visits.

Taking a step back from the idea of upgrading stamps. In some ways
it would be nice to rotate stamps encouraging people to visit a
location more than once. There is a local refuge that we frequent on
a regular basis that I have placed boxes in. Each season there are
remarkable things that impress me about this lovely gem - the winter
ice formations, spring flowers, lush summer growth and fall colors.
I think that visiting the spot only once to "nab" the box
shortchanges the location. I have contemplated emulating
LoneMassWolf's idea of a seasonal box to encourage people to visit
the location in different seasons.
