Since the formal objections are all on one change that isn't related to 
the other changes, removing that change and reverting to the old text 
would be an option.

The one change that seems most useful, being able to quickly make 
editorial changes apparently was accidentally left out of what was put 
to AC Review - but it looks like the change to the definition of 
editorial changes that was needed to make that other change did make it 
in.  It would be nice if broken links, typos and errors in examples 
could be quickly fixed.

One possibility would be to add that change in that was accidentally 
left out.  remove the change that have the 4 formal objections and 
quickly do another AC review - not another last call - pointing out what 
changed.
