Squeaking in under the wire.
Section 7, Cleartext signature framework says:
It is desirable to sign a textual octet stream without ASCII
armoring the stream itself, so the signed text is still readable
without special software.
Suggest "It is sometimes desirable to sign ..."
(i.e. add a "sometimes". It's not always desirable to clearsign).
