That's the closest thing to ideal we have written in stone, and the rest would be up to user opinion. Remember that a mod should be able to ideally do this as well.

As for the ideal piece, I guess I can kind of give a synopsis, although I'm not that good at giving everyone's opinion (I guess someone can cut in if they want to though so). Users that are polite, extremely active, and are actually helpful are more likely to be good potential candidates. To not have done anything really stupid - like going and posting 14/88 on forums like a certain CoT has done - is a pretty good idea too. The biggest, above all thing, in my opinion, is to be helpful to the community while getting along with users.

That's about all I could really think of. Like I said, I'm sure someone has a different opinion and if they do feel free to help me out (please).
