BoBoZoBo, the idea you suggest is one of my great disappointments in an otherwise great game, because the very idea you propose is all but a standard these days in first-person shooter multiplayer modes. I was surprised that Medal of Honor shipped with such weak objective-based gameplay.
Team Fortress Class does what you suggest, and exceptionally well. So does Unreal Tournament. Day of Defeat also does it, and even better than the first two, AND in a realistic World War II setting. And so on.
There are a number of existing single-player maps that would facilitate this sort of gameplay, too, making for some semi-easy quick conversions until the all-new stuff comes out. Specifically, the second portion of sniper town (town hall) would work well for this "checkpoint" sort of gameplay. So would the third portion of snowy park, the town level. So would the "secret" board that does not appear in the game. As would "The Hunt," expanded to encompass the fields in the SP game.
Medal of Honor multiplayer is a lot of fun, but I am a gamer who likes objectives over shoot-em-ups, and MoH lacks in good objective-based play. For now.
