Posthumous automatic deletion of convictions. If alive you have to apply and it's decided on a case by case basis - and still sounds pretty crap.
Did the government ever make good on their promise to consider retrospectively removing all convictions for homosexuality in the end? I know they did for Turing but there was a discussion about doing it for everyone else too.
