Proto:

A Clarification is a type of instrument that always has 0.1 power. A 
clarification may only clarify existing rules, and may not have any 
functionality not already provided by a reasonably plausible interpretation of 
a rules; any other functionality is INEFFECTIVE. [Maybe: remove this sentence 
to avoid crazy meta-CFJs, letting the Moot system handle bad Clarifications?] 
The Rulekeepor SHALL include the text of all Clarifications in the Full Logical 
Ruleset, and SHOULD list them near relevant rules.

When submitting a nontrivial judgment of TRUE, FALSE or PARADOXICAL, a judge 
CAN and SHOULD propose the text for one or more Clarifications. Once a 
Judgement has been in place for more than seven days without being entered into 
Moot, or has been entered into Moot with a result of AFFIRM or FAILED QUORUM, 
Clarifications are created with the specified text.

Any player may destroy a Clarification Without Objection, and SHOULD do so if 
it becomes irrelevant.

This is pretty similar to the annotations we already had on old FLRs, but given 
force and a legal requirement for the Rulekeepor to keep track of them. After 
this is in effect for a while, it might be worth getting rid of the current 
informal precedent system (in the form of a suggestion of how to judge CFJs).
