When a city grows or a tile becomes unavailable we have to do something 
with the unplaced citizen.  In many cases there is not time for the 
client CMA to take effect so the server has to take some action. 
Traditionally this results in a full auto_arrange_workers call.  I agree 
that we shouldn't rearrange existing workers but I don't think a 
fallback of always turning the citizen into an elvis is acceptable.
