Building from this ---

It is possible via this mechanism for the federation to be selected by the =
participants, rather than the federation being defined as a fixed set by th=
e smart contract platform.

Perhaps anyone can advertise themselves (by e.g. locking some bonded amount=
 on the blockchain with a `OP_CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY`) as being willing to act=
 as trusted executors of smart contracts.

Participants then select such executors they believe to be trustworthy, and=
 what voting quorum of the selected executors is sufficient to convince the=
 participants of the correct execution of the smart contract.

Of course, more choices, more cognitive effort for you mere humans, so prob=
ably not a good idea in general.
