We would need to create approvals based on manager hierarchy where the top approver is is the CEO.  The solution often provided is to put

Top participant = HierarchyBuilder.getPrincipal("corp",-1,"","")

Since this means the username of the CEO is hardcoded we would need to replace it by an argument that is less change-prone.

We were thinking of giving the CEO a certain "dummy" role and then get the CEO in the various approvals by searching for a user with this role.  This would keep the CEO-change limited to assigning the role as opposed to changing all the approval rules.
