Proposal: Stepping Down [trivial]

Add to end of Rule entitled "Ranks":

At any time, the Captain or First Officer may announce, via a post to the blog, that they are stepping down from their rank. If the First Officer steps down, he immediately becomes an Ensign and the Captain may choose a new First Officer from any Crew Member other than the former First Officer, the Computer, or himself; if this creates a void in another Rank, the Captain must choose an Ensign to fill the Rank. If the Captain steps down, the First Officer becomes the new Captain and may choose a new First Officer from any Crew Member other than the Computer or himself. As above, if this causes a void in another Rank, the new Captain must choose an Ensign to fill the Rank.

By itself, there are a couple holes here, but if the below proposal regarding Rank-Changing passes, I don't think they'll pose a problem.
