What exactly would you appeal? The fact that your ranking has changed, and you're now on page 7?

pretty much, yes. If i was ranking at #1 and now I'm at #4 that's fine I could probably deal with that. Simply reevaluate what I'm doing and change organically. To go from #1 to page 7 not only seems crazy from a ranking point of view (i.e how can a legit page that did rank so well instantly be disregarded) but it would also be very damaging to most businesses.

In this eventuality some form of communication with google would be very useful, perhaps vital.
