I think such occurrences of SHALL will be replaced with SHOULD or 
non-normative "should".  (I don't think 'ftp' URIs will be used with 
applications that have no UI; so I don't see reasons to assume they will 
be used in such way.  But, anyway, your comment regarding SHALL is 
reasonable).

I'll make the following corrections: 1st instance - "in RFC 959" (as 
currently), 2nd one - "in the same document", 3rd one (I guess this is 
regarding ASCII) - "in RFC 959".
