Hi Eric,

Thanks for the background.  I still sympathize with Hannes' point that
"Recommended" means "IETF Consensus".  I have to explain this
too often in the insular automotive industry.

But I certainly wouldn't write an RFC to change the title of a single
column in an IANA registry.  I've been one of the Designated Experts
for the IANA Internet Printing Protocol (IPP) registry for 20 years and
we rename IANA fields as needed by a direct request to our IANA
folks (after consensus in the IEEE-ISTO Printer Working Group IPP
WG - successor to IETF IPP WG in the 1990s).

Cheers,
- Ira
