	Let me suggest that it can get worse. What happens when a
	document goes into "Expert Review :: External Party", and
	an expert registers comments (that get into the COMMENTS
	field), then never responds to the author's response to
	the comments? This is one way to effectively block
	a document (this is very much like filibuster, only by
	silence).
