I suggest that the old RFC-style must/should/may syntax be dropped
when policy is next rewritten, in favour of a system which describes
accurately:
a) whether breaking this rule is a bug, or whether this is just
documentation
b) what severity such bugs should be
Maybe this belongs in the SGML tags. Then you could generate
documentation that only included the rules which were bugs.
