Mozilla Employees would still have to request L1 access, right? This isn't proposing that all employee LDAP accounts automatically have this flag set?
To my eyes, the phrasing you have listed "Mozilla Employees do not require additional vouching" reads as "Mozilla Employees require only the above vouching and no more", which I don't think is what you meant. Phrasing like "Mozilla Employees do not require the above vouching" would be less ambiguous I think.
