I've thought of this recently too..

Personally, I wouldn't have a problem accepting anything new as
Ca'Non, as long as the following conditions were satisfied:

1:

There was an authority recognized within the klingon community, as
being *the* official authority on klingon.

And by authority, I don't mean "person"; I mean something like the
kli, publishing new words or clarifications on grammar.

2:

Grammar-wise, the clarifications would come from known grammarians,
submitted through kli channels.

3:

Vocabulary-wise, new words could be submitted by *all* people, known
within the community to be able to actually write a f*** sentence.

..If the above conditions were met, and any new material came through
kli, *and through kli only*, then I would be willing to accept new
Ca'Non.

But I wouldn't use, not even as toilet paper, arguments like: "we'll
accept this word or this grammar, because someone who worked on a
movie decided so".

If we're to understand each other, while using this language, there
has to be a central authority/institution/organization, through which
new knowledge will be established.

good.. good.. let the Ca'Non flow through you..
