I know this is an old idea, but in order to use all toothless idlers, I have twisted belt between the motor and the first outer idler.

I did this on the large printer (600x450) which uses 10mm belts. It did improve print quality by getting rid of repeating artifacts on the surface.

At the same time twist in the belt have increased the elasticity of the belt and added to ringing/ghosting especially on X.
