If I may paraphrase John Levine, no amount of MUST NOTting will prevent a 
pinhead from being a pinhead.  In those cases, I prefer to pick RFC2119 words 
geared toward the competent reader.  That's why I went with SHOULD NOT here.

But I'll go with consensus, also accepting that the IESG might correct us in 
either direction.  Thus, what do others think?
