The map use case is easy - there can be few arguments about a person
putting a pin in a map. (Of course, the labels on the map itself might
be a source of argument.)

One reason timezones in the Olsen Timezone file are named after
continents and cities is that cities actually change names less often
than countries. Also, it is more common (although not universal, of
course) for political disputants to agree on the name of a city even if
they don't agree who should rule it or which country it should be in.

I suspect the module owner for the Reps website with, as always, right
of appeal to Mitchell if someone is deeply upset (a right to be used
rarely and judiciously).

If we want a Mozilla-wide policy, that would probably require Mitchell's
approval, or someone she delegates.
