I would go with an ArbCom role account that can enforce decisions made
by ArbCom on their private mailing list. That way there are not any
individuals with the power to make untraceable blocks. ArbCom are the
most trusted members of the community (they may not have universal
support, but they are still trusted with checkuser and oversight), so
it makes sense that they be the ones to do this.
