FWIW: I believe that the intent of the WG at the time we wrote the
current specification was that rsync be mandatory to implement for
both CA and RP.  As others have noted, the somewhat misnamed
"deprecate-rsync" draft is about changing that, which is fine if
that's the direction we want to go, but for now I think an RP is
required at least to attempt to fall back to rsync when RRDP fails.
