I believe that part of the answer to the last question is incorrect--if a
player accidentally knocks over his king while reaching for a cup of tea,
not only does that player not resign (the FAQ is correct on this point),
the player is not even compelled to move his king (the FAQ says he is so
compelled).  This is clear from a careful reading of FIDE rule 7.2.
