ACTION-179 -- Shane Wiley to draft section on seriousness of the request for a user-granted exception (with ninja) -- due 2012-04-19 -- OPEN

Here is my proposal for draft text:

"<Non-Normative>

Requesting and having an exception granted by a user is a significant event and should be treated as such.  When requesting site-wide or web-wide exceptions, the upmost care should be taken in relaying to the user the breadth and expanse of the exception they are granting.  This is not to suggest the party requesting the exception takes on direct liability for the parties the user is granting an exception to but rather it's critical that requesters of user granted exceptions take care to appropriately express the scope of that exception such that liability is appropriately placed on the parties benefiting from the exception."
