I notice that RFC2119 is not in the bibliography, even though there's  
a link to it in the spec.

For what it's worth, I am in also favour of not including the  
additional sentence. For the reasons you mention, but also because  
prose of the form "this specification doesn't mandate a way to...  
however one way might be...", although not strictly contradictory,  
very often leads to confusion. Secondly, the particular time-scoping  
solution mentioned suggests awkward user interaction, and might  
influence implementers the wrong way.

Max.
