Sam, 

To add to your list (and to Keith's comment about scope), are
people to whom BCP 83 has been applied allowed to post
Internet-Drafts?  To register for meetings? To be
Nomcom-eligible?  In particular, if something said in an I-D can
be used as part of the rationale for a PR-action (it is not
completely clear to me whether or not that should be the case),
then certainly such an action should be able in include cutting
off I-D posting privileges or at least subjecting I-Ds to
aggressive moderation).  And, to borrow a note from today's
discussion in ELEGY, if someone is abusive and disruptive enough
on one or more mailing lists to justify a PR-action, inviting
them to a meeting (possibly even with a fee waiver) where they
can be abusive or disruptive f2f, at a room microphone, and/or
over Meetecho would not make obvious sense.

While I think answers to those questions (including yours and
Keith's) are probably important, it is probably even more
important that we ask the questions and be clear about rules and
expectations rather then trying to make things up the next time
a proposed PR-action case comes along.

best,
   john
