A proposal is a document outlining changes to be made to Agora,
including enacting, repealing, or amending rules, or making
other explicit changes to the gamestate.
Note that by this definition, a proto-proposal technically is an
actual proposal -- just not one intended to be distributed. If the
promotor distributes a proposal, then by definition it exists.
