Upon further consideration, I've realized that in fact I was wrong. The 
only actions that are banned are those relating to:
PGo
The Galactic Institute's Prize for Extreme Cleverness
The Cactus Jack Memorial Prizes
Societal Underwriting
Stylistics
Cards

Every other rule comes earlier in the ruleset than the Eclair rule, and 
so takes precedence over it.

I'm still gonna propose to remove the action bit.

I also still oppose the Eclair bit. One could argue that objects such 
as Posts to the Public Forum and the Letter "M" are equivalent to each 
other, as both are referenced by the rules yet neither are defined by 
them. Thus, they're both equivalent to Chocolate Eclairs, and thus to 
each other.

I eat the letter M. Mmmmmm.... Emmy...

For that matter, the rules never specifically define "Administrator", 
or "the game". So Dave is the game, and I eat them both.
