I think advising anyone to alter a signature on a message irrespective of
the signature's validity will be hard to sell.  It would be simpler to just
remove the signature entirely if there's a good reason not to want it there
anymore.

This unfortunately seems a rather small thing for which to spin up an
update to either RFC6377 or RFC6651.  Are there any other things that have
evolved since those documents were published that might make revisions
worth doing?
