Hm. Does our dear Arbcom still think that the thread around its leg is a chain?

At some point in the near future it might be a good time to
collectively conjure up ideas about what a more ideal "Arbcom" will
look like. We all think we know what works and what doesn't, so the
basic premise is simply relevant experience - in which we are all
sufficiently qualified. The questions are simple: 1) What should it
do, and 2) how should it work?
