Allowing auction spam outside of .market.auction, for example, goes against
site principles, so that part is not up for discussion.  However, if some
system of logical sub-groups could be devised in which auction spam could
live both in .market.auction and in these special subgroups, that would not
go against site principles.  This is no small challenge, however.

Calling it spam instead of "announcements and/or updates" is shorter,
but it also prejudges. It's your site and your judgement but I did want
to point it out.

Yah, agreed -- a better word is needed.  Suggestions?  "Flog" is good but
probably not as well understood(?).
