(With thanks to kd5mdk for bringing our attention to these points on Fencing Net.)
The fencing federation from Brazil has made the following proposal to the FIE:
==========================================
To add : At foil, during the fencing phrase, the arm, forearm and unarmed hand must never stand in front of the chest.

FYI. The USFA has adopted the following: Substitution and use of the non-sword hand and arm
t.22. 1. The use of the non-sword hand and arm to carry out an offensive or defensive action is forbidden (cf. t.114, t.117, t.120). Should such an offense occur, the touch scored by the fencer at fault is annulled and the latter will be penalized as specified for offenses of the 2nd group (red card).
YES. It is a RED CARD.
