I doubt it. If your company cared about an issue and you went directly
against their wishes/goals your bosses wouldn't want to have a "chat"
with you?  I certainly would if I was signing your paycheck.  :-)
And if the answer is 'no' then its probably not an issue they care
that much about and its not those cases I think people are really
worried about.  In the end I just don't see the upside but plenty
of downside to allowing companies more than one vote at the board.
