A defender, on lead,
1) drops the D9 while playing the D4: the D9 becomes a minor pc.
2) drops the D9 and D4: he can choose which he plays, the other
becomes a minor pc
3) drops the D9 while playing the DT: the D9 becomes a minor pc.
4) drops the DT while playing the D9: the DT becomes a major pc.
5) drops the DT and D9: he can choose which he plays, if he chooses
the DT, the D9 becomes a minor pc
 
AG : But if in (5) he chooses the D9, the 10 becomes a MPC. Would be silly
in this case, but imagine he's playing 4th in hand and drops  the D9 (high
enough to win the trick) and the DA. It could be his interest to declare he
plays the D9, and have the DA as a major penalty card ... which he will lead
to the next trick.
 
> do we really need to investigate the intent, or is it simpler and we
treat all two cards the same - neither is played voluntarily and the
choice is always up to the player?
 
AG : I'd prefer to let him choose, in the spirit of L72A5.
Now, what if you pull a card from your hand, begin mobing it towards the
table, and another card drops ? 
If you're quick enough to stop moving before the card can be seen, you'd be
allowed to declare the exposed card as "played", provided it is legally
playable  to this trick, of course.
 
Best regards
