Hi,

I do not agree these changes should be made at this late date.
It seems to me that in order to support a feature you have to implement it,
and therefore if any features are set then the module is implemented, not
imported.
All features should be set to false in an import-only module.

IMO this interpretation holds for typedef modules like iana-crypt-hash.
We list that as implemented (because it is) and the features that are
supported are set.
