Thank you for your reply.

> Obviously when I say add a new element to the language, it means create a RFC7991bis that does that modification. And then modify the xml2rfc tool to match the new spec.

Wasn't obvious, I appreciate the clarification. But if you're modifying the XML language, why not just remove the limitations on non-ASCII that have been found to be problematic?

I would also appreciate your thoughts on this point as it seems your rationale is all about the "violations" you cite.

> I'm not even sure "violate 7997" is even a sensible thing to say, since that is an INFORMATIONAL RFC. So, for that matter, is RFC 7322.
