Will do.

I think don't think it belongs on the broader list, largely because IMO 
it's out of scope for this doc.

Here's my response, FWIW (to be posted when I land):

-------

This doc is intended to be clearly focused on procedural issues:

	- unifying the registries
	- updating the procedures

Although we mention some principles of allocation, that discussion 
doesn't change anything; the principles are not binding, and they're 
just generally conservative and exceptions will obviously occur.

The idea of deprecating the separate meaning and handling of the system 
ports belongs in a separate proposal, and we're not advocating that at 
this time.
