Greg Maxwell pointed out to me on IRC that this idea doesn't work: there is=
 only a receipt on the commitment to the offer (message) from the maker, no=
t on the plaintext version, hence there is nothing stopping the maker from =
falsely claiming censorship after not sending the plaintext.

Reflecting on this a bit more, my intuition is that this problem is much mo=
re difficult than I had hoped; if there is a solution I suspect it involves=
 much more sophisticated ideas. Many solutions just end up begging the ques=
tion by presuming the existence of an uncensorable BB in order to create a =
new one; and/or use the blockchain for that function, but that is too slow =
and expensive, usually. I'd be happy to be proved wrong, though :)
