What I want to see isa formalized nomic language. Failing that, a reduction in 
amibiguity.

[[ Formalized nomic example:

proposal[1234].vote(YES);

Or:

new proposal() = {
	new rule(Chutzpah := 5, keywords := [Instarule, blah, etc]) = {
		hook(grid.move, { (x,y) := moveto }) = {
			if (moveto == (1,1)) {
				return false; // It is illegal to enter (1,1)
			}
			else
			{
				return hook.next(); // Let the next hook take care of things
			}
		}
	}
}


You know, this'd be perfect for MUD nomic...
