OK.  Let's scrap it for now.

The "internal use case" behind a proposed feature changing so quickly is a bit worrying. What is good for this project should ideally be good for everybody, not only for satisfying a particular $CORP needs of the day. But I think the idea of giving enhanced visibility into stakeholder companies directions and priorities Emily (I think?) floated during the contributors' summit may help reduce such a risk, hopefully.

Thanks.
