This seems clean and reasonable to me. (Or you could just as easily have
the server do the adjustment and set Komi to 3.5; that would also be consistent
with TT rules). If my bot sees 2 black moves in a row, it can figure out it's
in a handicap game.
A bigger question to me is, how large a handicap might be encountered.
Will we see Mogo playing Random with 100 stone handicap, or will excessive
mismatches be disallowed altogether?

If your program is taking black you would get someting
like this from the GTP channel:
clear_board
komi 0.5
boardsize 19
genmove black
genmove black
genmove black
for a 3 stone handicap game. The opponent would get the
corresponding consecutive play commands.
I know this won't make everyone happy - but I believe it is
more in the spirit of a simple logical rule-set and is what
drew me to Tromp/Taylor rules in the first place. Might as
well stick close to it.
We can call this rule-set "CGOS" - which is exactly tromp/taylor
without suicide.
