@Wildones (and Primetime),

Before it was extreme that a user couldn't ask for rights, but making it so they *have* to /cannot be nominated by a bureaucrat even, is... equally extreme, imho.

Also, this exclusion was not in the proposal which was approved. The proposal sounded like a procedure for users to ask for rights... making a new path available to users. It did not claim to remove a path available to bureaucrats.

Why would you think it is extreme? If I didn't guess it wrongly, most places will need people to apply for a spot for president or other names of equal position of "president", and being nominated but not applying for that spot is not counted as a candidate for that position.
