Annotation of role/office/function as NE? about amr-guidelines

[uhermjakob]

These job positions are not NEs. The only reason why they are capitalized is probably because they directly precede the name of the office holder. Current policy is to decompose these job titles, e.g.

(s / secretary
  :mod (g / general))

Exception: military ranks, e.g.

(l / brigadier-general)

See issue #31 regarding the new have-org-role-91.

What is the rationale for treating military ranks differently? "Brigadier General" and "Secretary General" seem equally semi-compositional to me. ("Secretary General" ≠ "General Secretary", for example. You could say there is a special postmodifying sense of "general" that only exists in names of offices/ranks, imported from French.)
