Thanks for highlighting this typo (and the corresponding ones for
contextStatus, aclStatus and viewStatus).  In each case, it should
say that modifiable columnar objects can be changed without first 
setting the row's status to 'notInService'.

Since I have taken over the task of editor, I will note these for
inclusion at their next revision.

Keith.
