I would like some sort of means of determining the date the card was graded, by whom, and whether it was either crossed-over re-holdered. This might be done through use of a barcode reader or maybe something in the serial numbering--front or back label. No need for a grader's name necessarily--just "grader #12" or similar, but something where there is a way to discern whether a card was graded by someone who is generally tougher--also to know who may have failed to catch a fake or altered card. The date thing should really not be that controversial, IMO. Maybe not so much with the other.
