That seems too complicated to me. G.'s model is the way we've done it before, I just don't like it because tracking proposals that don't end up being distributed feels like unnecessary work. It does serve some utility by giving people a list of things they can pend, I just find it annoying and am prone to grumbling. In any case, I can propose to change this later. -Aris
