These suggestions increase work to stay synchronized with other
document and are inconsistent with the RFC Editor's standards.
Unless there is considerable belief on the part of the WG that
making them would improve efficiency, I'm disinclined to make
them.  It would be less effort (although definitely not zero) to
generate HTML versions of the documents along with the text
ones; I'm more inclined to do that if there is really a
requirement of this type.
