Even if that's possible, it adds a burden. As likely not all people
agree that such a procedure would be a good thing, it's necessary that
somebody establishes a policy. Guido has already indicated that he is
not interested in further policies; Barry (the canonical other person
to set policies) has indicated in the past that he would like such a
policy, but deems it unrealistic at this point. He gives other
procedural changes higher priority, so that realistically, such a policy
might not be established within the next two years.
