I think this is a bad idea. I think the idea of the IETF doing any kind of =
modification to what gets put in its archives is the start of a very slippe=
ry slope. It is also very fragile. For example, suppose a corporation purch=
ases a common URL shortener (bitly, tinyurl, etc) and decides to monetize i=
t somehow. Do we go back and undo all those links? Would that even be possi=
ble?
