It's partly there, but not quite ready.

First, you and I talked about it being required to be an ifName, where above
still has a SHOULD.  Second, ifName is defined as a DisplayString, and
DisplayString is defined as 0-255 ASCII characters, so the truncation part is
irrelevant.  I would replace the paragraph with just:

   If the Interface Identification Object identifies the probed interface by 
name,
   the object payload MUST be the MIB-II [RFC2863] ifName.

> Abstract:
>    This document describes a network diagnostic tool called PROBE.
>    PROBE is similar to PING, in that it can be used to test the status
>    of a probed interface.  It differs from PING in that it does not
>    require bidirectional connectivity between the probing and probed
>    interfaces.  Alternatively, PROBE requires bidirectional connectivity
>    between the probing interface and a proxy interface.  The proxy
>    interface can reside on the same node as the probed interface or it
>    can reside on a node to which the probed interface is directly
>    connected.  This document updates RFC 4884.
