ArtfulDodger: An organizer can "red dot" a tournament, which means absolutely no days off. Lately, I'm glad to say, more of these offerings are showing up on the tournament listings, I suspect to attract the players who move in a timely fashion while discouraging those who don't. It is a grand idea, since just one slow player can really drag down an entire tournament.

However, even this will not entirely alleviate the larger problem, and while I don't expect any radical action to be taken in the near future, it is a situation that will need reckoning at some point. The fact that it is now under discussion is a successful beginning.
