To be clear: not all the feedback I've received falls into this 
category. Some people have said some very helpful things :-)

On the other hand, feedback of the form "I don't like this proposal 
because it doesn't cover situation X, but I can neither provide a 
real-life example of X in the map, nor can I design a scheme which deals 
with it" is not helpful.
