By the way, if we're going to make power of attorney explicit, we should learn from Rule 2170-- not all executorships are now nor should be announcements that I act on behalf of you. When Googlebot causes PNP to send a message, there are several different first-class persons about equally likely to have most directly caused the message to be sent, none of which really match what an Executor is supposed to be. We could force Executors to be explicit, but I think it would be better to just not use the concept, so we can let the PNP live naturally as a robot, instead of forcing it into the mold of a traditional partnership.

"Grantor", "Holder", and > "Executor" are nice terms to consider. -Goethe R2170 already defines "Executor" (as "the first-class person who sends it, or who most directly and immediately causes it to be sent"). Going back to "Grantor" and "Holder" would work.

Just CFJ again, there's no reason a new CFJ can't go against precedent (as long as it brings up the precedent and says why it is Wrong). -Goethe

From Rule 591: The judgement of the question in an inquiry case, and the reasoning by which it was reached, SHOULD guide future play (including future judgements), but do not directly affect the veracity of the statement. However, to get the formal record updated, it would be cleaner to allow a late appeal, e.g. create a rule with this text: Any player CAN appeal CFJ 2050 by announcement, upon which this rule is repealed. Rule 2170 (Who Am I?) should probably also be amended to state that "X CAN act on behalf of Y" constitutes a legal fiction that Y is the one acting, and define some useful label for X's role in the matter.
