Just to close this loop for Sue, as I said in my original reply, the
existing text is sufficient.  If we were going to add text, it'd basically
say "do not process received refresh requests until GR procedures are
complete".

I'm not going to press heavily for such a thing in the spec.  But it's
likely what I'd suggest we put in our implementation.
