I actually like the halfway position of optionally appointing the
next-ranking person from the elections (above "nobody" of course) or
electing a new person.
The delay is a bit annoying though. I don't really see any reason that
it needs to be longer than 1 week for nomination and another for voting.

I agree with this and have thought about it before. Thanks for proposing
