Schema question: How to model penalties, fines and similar punishments that are not debarments?

I’m currently working on a pull request for #335 to bring the Liechtenstein sanctions list into OpenSanctions. The first section (”Entsendesperren”) are debarments, and I think I know how to model them. However, I’m not sure about the second section (“Übertretungen“), which are infractions that weren’t serious enough to warrant a debarment. One option could be to simply omit them, but I think such “criminal records for companies” would be interesting for Aleph and other OpenSanctions users. Should I emit them as Notes? Or is there a better way?

Ha, this overlaps with #334 a lot, I'd say. If you have a nice name to capture that it'd be amazing, for the moment we're modelling it as h.make_sanction (which will make it easier to coherently migrate it once we've developed nomenclature for the thing).
