I'm only just catching up on old mail, but I've read the comments
and wanted to add my 2cents.

Loosening the language to indicate general utility certainly sounds
like a good idea.  Having text which cites terminal use then acts as a
concrete (motivating) example.

TOS and broad/multi-cast usage I would think are beyond the current
scope of thought and intent, so the spec should simply cite them
away.  As one sage at the Houston meeting (sorry for forgetting
who) observed, this is supposed to be a simple protocol to
solve a simple problem.  We should be careful not to burden it
with extras to cover the maybes and whatifs, to the extent possible.
