I'd rather have harassment dealt with first by each community's AN/I boards and ArbCom if necessary, and then the Global Requests Committee or whatever it ends up being called. I don't think neither stewards nor the WMF are in the proper position to make arbitrary calls over user conduct. Stewards are meant to be for black and white cases. Personally, I support the introduction of a global ban policy allowing both for Committee and community bans.

With or without that ToS, any sane ArbCom would block persons who harass others. But, we don't have a body which is able to do that globally. The first step is to get that body, then to make some things explicit.
