You can only retire an entire item, not a single response to an item.  So if
I post a "Loest Pricess for Viagra" response to every item in coop, the only
way to make them all vanish would be to scribble them.  Even then users would
still see the item come up new.

When I did the pistachio interface, I have fairwitnesses the ability to
customize the look of their conferences (colors, login screens, etc). 
Basically, none did, so I eventually added the ability of users to
do such customization.  I think one of the problems with this policy is
that most conferences would announce no policy.  Probalby the proposal
should include a default policy for conferences who post none.
