I'm not sure I'd use RFC2119 language, since support for fragmentation is std track -- hence recommending something in this respect would be more std track than bcp. Besides, if you mention support for reassembly, you should also mention support for fragmentation. Otherwise, I fully agree with your proposed way forward.
