Cool.  So, personally, I'd be interested in the head's up ranking of 1) vs.
4).  There would be 5 possibilities: 1 beats 4, 4 beats 1, 1 not ranked, 4
not ranked, 1 and 4 both not ranked.

The reason I wonder about this particular matchup is that I find 4 and 5 to
be morally acceptable (but 4 beats 5), and 1 to be the obvious choice if
moral considerations were to be ignored, so I wonder how strongly the
preference of 1 over 4 is.  Still doesn't answer the more important
question, though, which is basically "how many contributors feel like
they're being robbed if 1) gets implemented".
