I don't think there is any end to how dangerous these things will become. If you look at the evolution of power vs price in the last couple of years, its clearly going one way: more mW for the buck.
With these 445 nm high power diodes on the market, it won't be very long until we see affordable diodes of similar power for red and probably green, since the consumer application (projector) is now viable.
Obviously laser pointer manufacturers will use these diodes as well, and create very dangrous yet affordable-to-anyone lasers (the DX dilda is a good example of that).
