Re: Editor's notes

There is definitely a 3 way disctinction.  ReSpec, in particular, can
inject information about "issues" and tie them into github issue
discussions.  These are distinct from "notes" (non-normative advice to the
reader / implementor) and "ednotes" (information the editor wants to
capture and bring to the attention of a reviewer for future action).
