8113bis should say that is it *extending* the type field so we can have more 
types. The word “update” I always had a problem with because it can be 
interpreted as “replacing". Replacing something to fix a problem. 

8113 is simply asking for one of the type value codepoint, so there can be 
another format to have more types.
