So, I've been musing on my own version of this:
Proposal: Regulating Act-on-Behalf (AI=3)
Enact a new Power-3 rule titled "Acting on Behalf" with the
following text:
Acting on behalf of (syn. send messages on behalf of) a
person (the grantor) with a specified message is equivalent
to sending a public message authored by the grantor.
Acting on behalf of a person is secured, with power
threshold 3 for first-class grantors and power threshold 2
for second-class grantors.
Rules to the contrary notwithstanding, acting on behalf of a
person is INVALID if not published. Such publication is
INVALID unless it specified the text of the simulated message by:
(a) clearly stating the text of a message;
(b) clearly specifying an action (the message states the
grantor performs the action); or
(c) performing by announcement an action defined in a public
contract's text to (clearly and unambiguously) include
causing the grantor to perform a specific action (the message
states the grantor performs the action)
Enact a new Power-3 rule titled "Permission to Act on Behalf"
with the following text:
A person CAN act on behalf of a partnership (if it is a
person) as unambiguously permitted by that partnership's
text.
A person CAN act on behalf of another person when unambiguously
permitted by a public contract to which the grantor is a
party.
If permitted by rules with power at least 1.7, a judge in an
equity or criminal case CAN act on behalf of a party or
defendant without not more than 5 objections.
Some rationales:
- Secured at Power 3 because if arbitrary Power 1 act on behalf works,
then you have a Power 1 pass-any-democratic proposal scam.
- Power=1.7 grant is to not break the current equity case rule.
- (c) is to make deposit/withdraw work.
- Limited to public contracts and public messages to avoid UNDETERMINED
game state. There are some actions which cannot be performed by
announcement (e.g. submitting an Enigma puzzle), but I don't think any
of them are important enough to allow delegation for.
