[Avodah] yemach shmo

[Saul.Z.Newman at kp.org]

in relation to an off-list discussion where this expression was used about 
an O rabbi  who espouses a doctrine that many other O rabbis would 
consider foolish but not neccesarilly heretical,  i wonder if there are 
parameters for the use of this expression about jews, frum or not.
eg  does it apply to Ben Gurion? all non-Orthodox rabbis?  Rabbi Slifkin? 
the heads of Meshichism? one side of a Rebbe succesion dispute about the 
other?
i guess i'm asking if this is a term that should be thrown around lightly, 
and if there are codified limits...
