Real quick (I've received some off-list replies and do plan to respond to 
those), want to be clear: this thread is not meant to be interpreted as a 
proposal to modify Bitcoin (it is not a BIP), it is just, exactly as the 
subject says, some thoughts I had that I hadn't seen expressed elsewhere, that 
I felt like sharing, in case they are at all useful/interesting to anyone.

Cheers,
Greg
