No.  The format of the email discussion does not need to be the same as
the format of the registry itself.  That is a simplifying, but not necessary,
assumption.  The email discussion only needs to contain information that
could be used to generate the necessary changes.  Though I wouldn't want
to make unnecessary work for IANA, I also think that they are quite capable
of operations more sophisticated than mere cut-and-paste.

The current situation is, in my opinion, a result of over-specification of the
interface between the reviewer and IANA.
