Everything Mark said.

Having said that, since TLS has taken over PKIX' role as the IETF's security
RFC mill I expect it'll get published no matter what, so in practice I'm not
planning to lose much sleep over it and just ignore it after it's published,
as people did with a lot of the PKIX RFCs.  It's an FYI, not a you-must-do-
this-or-else, so everyone's free to ignore it at their leisure.

Peter.
