Consistently with my other comment that no extra content should be added 
to transcoded web sites, I think that this should apply even more 
strongly to mobile-optimised sites. Unfortunately, I see a lot of 
transcoder deployments where operators and/or transcoder vendors feel 
entitled to add advertisement and extra navigation bars to existing 
mobile optimisec ontent. Because of this, I suggest the following 
addition as a note to "4.3.1":

"Note: It should be stressed that, in case of a |Cache-Control: 
no-transform| directive,  adding  any extra content (such as banners, 
navigation bars and links not available in the original application) is 
not admissable"

Thank you

Luca Passani
