I have no objection... and I do remember that prop now.

I don't think (in this case) that using Exec Tidyness is a major misuse. All 
it means is that players have been a variety of colours during the past few 
weeks and were unaware of it. Although not being a player I obviously can't 
completely comment on this.

(and yes, I would usually translate the Exec Tidy powers as fixing typo's - 
I suppose it depends whether it's going to change the game state 
dramatically or not. The change could always be CFI'd if anyone disagrees 
with this use of power.)
