I was just reading this specification again for some example text, and I 
noticed a small issue. This nit is about the following requirement from 
Section 6 of RFC 5228 (Sieve):

    Extensions MUST state how they interact with constraints defined in
    section 2.10, e.g., whether they cancel the implicit keep, and which
    actions they are compatible and incompatible with.

The latter part of this requirement is obviously explicitly met in 
Section 2.1. However, I miss an explicit statement about whether or not 
the new "convert" action cancels the implicit keep. Although it should 
be quite obvious and the examples provide various hints in the correct 
direction, I think an explicit sentence is in order. For example, I did 
find this for both new actions defined in the editheader specification 
(RFC5293), e.g. `The addheader action does not affect Sieve's implicit 
keep.' I think the situation is very similar in this case.

Regards,

Stephan.
