If I get a few more nudges on this, then I'll try to get something started next week if I have the time.

In my head I can see several ways of how 'vet voting' could work. So if I do go ahead and do this, what I'll probably do is get my head down and think about it properly (as it's just an 'idea' at the moment), come back with some thoughts on how it could work, and canvass opinions on them.

One thing I'll probably do though is to divide 'vets' into two groups. One with "good players" in, the other containing "highly experienced" ones. Although being on either list is of course not mutually exclusive. And if the term 'vet' is to be associated with the "good player" group (which seems best IMO), then I'd happily welcome suggestions for another term that can be used for the "highly experienced" group.
