In my active days, I wrote a bylaw/constitutional provision with a "vote of confidence" which was a little different from what y'all are proposing.

The bylaw was written for the treasurer position. We were having some difficulty with the learning curve involved with becoming treasurer (it's one of those jobs where you can't literally afford a learning curve).

The deal was that each year during elections, an Assistant Treasurer was elected. At the end of that period, they'd be up for a "confidence" vote. To fail that vote, they'd need to lose by a 3/4 to 1/4 margin.

Then, they'd be treasurer for a year, a new Assistant would be elected, etc.
