Ye gods, I would.  I also have to wonder, what with the Undead troops in the
army hinted at in the HoE book, would the army (armies?) have instigated a
pre-death registration for the army?  I mean, sure, you wouldn't necessarily
come back, but, if you did....

Also, what about the legal implications of people getting up from the dead?  I
imagine, for one, wills would begin like "I, Marshal Nightchilde, being of
sound mind and still-dead body do hereby.."  Hmm.  Wonder if the courts would
allow a Harrowed's testimony in his own murder trial?  Would marriage
ceremonies have to be changed to "Until true death do you part?"

I realize these are kinda moot points game-wise, but it might be useful
background-wise.  :)
