Tim mentioned to me off-list that creating a second account was fine.

Is there some special name I should use to make it clear that this isn't 
a normal user account? Wikipedia, for example, uses the suffix "-Bot" to 
make the distinction obvious. E.g., "AntiVandalBot". This won't quite be 
a bot, as it will be issuing a bunch of manual requests at the behest of 
users, so would something like "-App" be appropriate? E.g., 
"QueryBuilderApp"?

Thanks,

William
