The main issue here is not that people would like to change what the
RFC says. It's quite the opposite in fact. People would like to be
able to reuse parts the RFC text in other contexts (e.g. documentation
for a piece of software that relies on several RFCs). Without
additional rights, they would have to paraphrase the content of RFCs,
which would actually lead to more compatibility problems. Also, the
proposed text already includes the condition "provided that no such
derivative work shall be presented, displayed, or published in a
manner that states or implies that it is part of this RFC or any other
IETF Document". Given that, I'm not sure what the problem is.

Cheers,
