I recognise some of your use cases. However, there is non-public data in
Bugzilla accessible by the security group, and no-one signs anything.

If we thought such a thing could be usefully generic, that would be a
good idea. But I wonder if we would in practice actually need different
restrictions for different things.

The right way to make such a thing is to take an agreement being used
for one use case and try and generalise it for a second, and then a
third, and so on, and see if it gets unwieldy. Writing it from scratch
without use cases is a good way to waste your time on work that'll need
redoing :-)

It should not require a legal agreement for a non-employee to acquire
sufficient community trust that they can be trusted to tweet from @mozilla.
