Instant Replay for Penalties

This is something I've wanted for some time, but with some calls this week it is now generating some real discussion. I believe every penalty should be reviewable, including non-calls that a team believes are a penalty. I could see only allowing some things to be reviewed when replay began, but now that it is established and successful there should be nothing off-limits. Give coaches one extra challenge, that way the game won't drag on for another 30 minutes. Give teams a 4th challenge if they win two. I think some form of penalty review will come soon, but I am worried it will only be for certain calls like roughing the passer or pass interference. Why should there be a limit as far as what penalty? Why not be able to challenge a false start or offsides if it is critical to the game?

Also while we're at it, they should eliminate the silly rule of not allowing challenges in the last two minutes or overtime. I have never heard a reason for why this is.
