I have given some thought to the message content, and assuming that my bootstrap English dialog effort actually works, then English language as an Agent Control Language vocabulary becomes possible at the more deliberative, higher levels of the hierarchy, when the duration of NL parsing and generation is small compared to the overall task duration.
Let me offer my naive opinion: The distributive agents would be owned by different people on the net, who would want their agents to do *different* things for them. This occurs simultaneously. We need to distinguish 2 situations: A) where all the agents cooperate to solve ONE problem B) where agents are solving their own problems Your scheme would be useful for A. But it seems that most AGI users would want B. Which problem do you intend to solve? In case B, your scheme would add a lot of complications and whether it'd be beneficial or not is rather unclear.
