I lumped all of them into "Decisions that some reasonable persons would 
challenge or call "bad"" - I guess there are relatively few cases where the 
panelist doesn't agree with himself, so there's usually at least a single 
person who doesn't want to call the decision "bad".

You and I probably agree on "obvious" in a lot of cases.
The question is how to get from there to the point where we (or our 
somehow-selected representatives through ICANN) tell a panelist that his 
services are not wanted because we disagree with him too often.
And that's the place I don't have a good suggestion on at the moment.

This is my fifth GA message of the day. Time to be quiet for a while.
