Also, this whole 5E42 might have the potential to screw up a lot of
things...

- Switches, if they are Game Objects (there was a consultation on this at
some point, wasn't there??). Switch rule implies that switches have names,
and that both my Vested switch and ehird's (and all's) are named "Vested"...
- Teucer/teucer... lucky duck, teucer, with your lack of capitalization...
- "The holder of a Monster is a Monsterholdor, and may be referred to by the
name of the Monster." .... maybe .....
