<upd_refs>For copyright reasons I'm reluctant to paste large excerpts from the kokugos. These are the relevant sections of their entries for 有る・在る.
  Sankoku 7e-8e: 二⑤, "〔〈お／ご〉…"
  Meikyo 2e: 二⑤, "《「お［ご］…"
  Meikyo 3e: J⑤, "《「お［ご］…"
  Iwakoku 6e-8e: 一②キ, "《動作を表す…"
  Daijirin 3e-4e: 二➎, "動作性の漢語…"

Iwakoku defines this sense as "なさる。"
Meikyo describes it as an old form of speech corresponding to the modern 〜て下さい.

All the refs say this is an auxiliary form of ある that attaches to a suru noun or verb stem prefixed with お/ご/御.
It doesn't necessarily have to be あれ; Iwakoku gives "御一考ありたい" as another example with the same meaning.
I guess technically this might belong in the main 有る entry.

Not sure if [exp] would be the right PoS. Maybe [aux]?</upd_refs>

<upd_refs>Meikyo says 古語的な言い方 and daijirin says it's not really 現代語. I think a [dated] tag is better than a sense note.

Whether or not a usage is jocular can probably be interpreted from context.

I think the most useful thing to mention is that this is always お／ご／御 + verb + あれ. That's how most of the refs begin their definitions.

The connection to 有る・在る is already made clear by the kanji forms in this entry. I think a cross-reference to an example would be more useful.</upd_refs>

<upd_detl>Sounds like a good idea to me. Maybe this works.

I think "be" and "have" can be dropped from the second sense. Like I said, the refs describe it as "なさる" and "て下さい"</upd_detl>

<upd_detl>My reasoning for the second sense was that ある is acting as an auxiliary verb (attaching to a noun or stem), but since it's an inflected form and not the dictionary form we would just use [aux] instead of [aux-v].

I wasn't sure about the first sense. I was reluctant about [exp] because we're not defining it as an independent clause (although I guess in principle it could function as one). But now I see we're using [exp] for other imperative verb inflections (でありなさい, ください, なさいませ) that aren't independent clauses either.</upd_detl>
