I suppose it could do with a bit more.

6855 started as 5738 with a random smattering of improvements (I didn't pay 
attention at the start). Then I tried to implement it and protested against 
various brain damage, and in one quick jabber session, 5738bis lost every 
feature I hated. I was so surprised that I'm not sure I remembered to 
mention everything. Then Dave Cridland suggested better quoting, and then 
the RFC was published.

What badness do you see in 6855?
