I didn't mean to convey or imply that a vote was impending, moreso that I seriously disagree with the proposal as unneeded, unnecessary, poorly explained as to its benefits, and (as was well described before, though I paraphrase), "a ready-made answer for a non-problem." My apologies if anybody got the wrong impression that this was up for a vote. Rather, here and now it is being discussed, my "No" was merely my opinion IF it went to a vote. Better stated, I disagree with the proposal, as I see no need for it, it is over-engineered, it has no clear merit, it is confusing, it seems to be more trouble than it is worth and I feel it would chase away novice volunteers as "too complex." The consensus, with the exception of the proposer, seems 100% in line with my opinions. I do welcome more discussion, that's why we type here.
