COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I support Francesca's DISCUSS.

I suggest breaking Section 7 into separate subsections for each request. 
Specifically, the registrations in the first paragraph should be clearly
separated from the creation of the registry that starts below that.

Maybe I'm turning into a dinosaur, but since all of the syntaxes in these
documents are constrained to US-ASCII, I wonder why listing Unicode characters
individually, or ranges of them (e.g., Section 2.1), is preferred to using ABNF.

All of the SHOULDs in this document feel weak to me.  I can't tell, for
example, why an implementer might do anything other than what follows the
SHOULD, which suggests to me that they should be MUSTs.  If there's some reason
to leave the option there, I think some supporting text would be warranted.
