ack. mumble.

So I'll suggest a bit of an amalgam, including a cross reference of the 
type I prefer to avoid:

    1. State that this removes a restriction that was never essential.

    2. State that the timing of this removal is to accomodate EAI and 
for its use of the now-available features, see [RFCxxxx].
