Wearing 2462bis editor's hat, I'd really like to know what we should
do with this, process wise (i.e. whether I prefer or not prefer to
deprecate the M/O flags in a technical sense).
We first need to know if we really do not have much actual
implementation of these flags (particularly at the host side), but
it's quite likely the case (again, trying to be fair as a 2462bis
editor).
Then, where can I ask the correct behavior, process-wise? Working
group chairs? Internet area directors?
