Rick (and the Linux contributors),

I would prefer that we evaluate the needed RFC changes directly before
deciding on whether to update the specifications - as opposed to a blanket
"is it okay".

I am supportive of making the specification changes if, through
implementation, the specification was found to be wrong, difficult to
implement, or a better interpretation was found through implementation.
That is the way it should be; But, we need to consider the changes in some
detail.

And yes, I am very interested to know of other, shipping implementations.
