Hmm - if it's someone reasonably well known in the community, there's a good chance that someone would know that they'd died. (If nobody knew for sure, the timeouts in the statements Neil proposed would still turn over control after a while anyway.) I'd be happy for my code to be taken over if I've died. We're looking at our own version of the Organ Donor Register here - Code Donor Register (CDR)? ;)
