Several interesting responses, thanks.
I agree that detailed rules would be onerous and unable to cope with the
exceptional circumstances that the condition is intended to cover.
On the other hand BCP101 does seem to require some rules.

There are enough hassles for the IAOC tasks; let's wait to impose stricter
rules until we see clear evidence they are needed.
OK, I think that provides a way forward. Let's put in place a mechanisms
that allows the flexibility (i.e., not change to the "under exceptional
circumstances" and "with agreement of the IAOC chair or the IAOC"), but
remove the risk of surprise by inserting "with prior agreement", and supply
a way of determining whether stricter rules are needed by requiring "annual
reporting of expenses paid".
Cheers,
Adrian
