OK, I see <https://trac.tools.ietf.org/tools/xml2rfc/trac/changeset/3490>.

1) I agree and like the addition of <contact> as block-level element.
This solves the "how to style the contributors section" question we've
ignored for years.

2) Adding "<contact>" as phrase-level element: IMHO not a good idea.

2a) ...because allowing elements to appear both in block context and
flow context is asking for trouble. For instance: what if the <contact>
element inside <t> contains actual postal information?

2b) As I said before, there are more reasons to use non-ASCII than names
of contacts. For instance, what if I want to refer to the title of a
book? I know that this isn't currently mentioned in RFC 7997, but I
think wiring this into the grammar is the wrong approach.

Best regards, Julian
