Don't be to quick to judge -- I think applying the

might be in order (and not just in this particular sub-thread).

There may be quite a bit of wiggle-room for interpretation here, but...

Maybe you should just officially propose a simple amendment to the PVP
stating this and we'll see how many (or: if any) of the originators of
the PVP (dis)agree? Of course, we'll also see how many other interested
parties (dis)agree. Personally, I'd weigh the opinions of the
originators significantly more heavily of course, but this *is* a
pseudo-democratic process, so let's see what happens :)
