I, too, am unhappy with this not being a rule, because that's where
descriptions of game mechanics like this belong, in my opinion.  Like
jw, I approved it at a moment when I forgot about the not-a-rule clause.

But I have to admit that we did approve it specifically as a non-rule, and
I don't think there's anything technically illegitimate about it.  We
passed a rule stating that we can change the map in any way we agree to,
and so we can change the map by adding automatic behaviors to it.

I will note that, since it isn't a rule, I don't feel obliged to put the
exact phrasing of the proposal on my website.  Rules are specifically
sequences of sentences; change the sentence and you cange the rule.  This
is just a concept, which I can restate in my own words.
