Sounds reasonable to me. And in the process, perhaps the entire concept could be fleshed out more as to what would be considered a triggering level of mention.
I still think fellow posters should be encouraged to put up trigger warnings, because that would be the quickest way to get a warning up, and least formal. But perhaps a thanks to the poster flagging it from Dr. Bob or a deputy with a link to the FAQ? And of course, if no one else flags it, Dr. Bob or a deputy could.
That would be kind of good in a lot of ways, in that there would be more community involvement in the evolution of standards.
And if it doesn't work out, Dr. Bob could always adjust things. Which would be easier than reversing a policy written in stone, I think. Or at least it seems that way to me.
