CP9.6, "turn off extensions"

Regarding AR-026 about SpecGL checkpoint 9.6...

Maybe "Require that implementations provide interoperable alternatives to 
extensions" would be a better way to phrase the checkpoint.  It better 
encompasses a "turn off" mode, equivalent alternative content, etc.  (It 
could even subsume a "not applicable" clause:  if it can be convincingly 
documented that a given extension does not adversely impact 
interoperability, then....)

Thoughts?
