We had no such alias made, but I'm requesting it to be done.  I'll
update the document accordingly once we have the alias.

I also plan on making it known that users/developers should be able to
also contact any of the local moderation/operation staff for the medium
they're on, meaning they can contact any op in #gentoo or any moderator
in the forums.  There's no need to necessarily go directly to the
proctors for everything.

Yes, it was intended.  Nobody on the Council should be a proctor.  I
think you missed that only the *initial* group of proctors includes all
global moderators.  By the next council meeting, we plan on having a
much reduced list of proctors to serve in a more permanent role.  This
will *include* moderators from the forums, but not all of them.  If
someone runs for Council and is elected, they would give up their
position as proctor (but not as a moderator/operator).  Since the next
Council elections aren't before the next Council meeting, this should
work out just fine.  ;]

Basically, the chain goes like this:

local moderators/operators -> proctors -> Council
