Hold on thar, pardners.  You need to be a person to make an agreement
(R1742), but you don't need to be a person to *stay in* an agreement.
After making it, you just need to remain a "party".

Otherwise, you could safely drop out of any agreement by changing your
personhood.  When the rules changed, R1586 kept Fookie around, and
the property of being in Vote Market wasn't removed.  Of course, that
makes Fookie a member of the agreement but without R101 rights...
