Having read the feedback from a number of people, I am inclined to revert the 
MUST NOT that I added in the last revision.  "Don't unless you know what you 
are doing" pretty generally applies to RUF, so I can see it being reasonable 
to not special case it here.

I'll wait to see if anyone else has any other changes we should make before 
posting an updated draft.
