Am I the only person who finds this recommendation a little bit less than satisfactory?  A literal search for XXX-YYY-ZZZZ will fail in that case.  XXX‑YYY‑ZZZZ is not the same string.

Though props to the people who make my browser, because that search works for me in a browser, even if tools like grep fail.  Maybe it's not so bad if xml2rfc were to rewrite this also.
