Re: [dxwg] Revisiting the definition of "profile" (#963)

My reading of that IETF definition is that it defines 'profile' to only apply to profiles of MIME types-- certainly a narrower scope that our discussions here. 
On close parsing: _a profile is a DESCRIPTION of constraints {on documents that have MIME types}._  Use of 'CAN' is not standard specification language; my reading would interpret CAN to denote 'possible', not permitted (MAY), recommended (SHOULD) or required (MUST).  

I don't think it's suitable for our purposes.
