There certainly is no time in it.  The important thing I have learned
about trying to push MIBs through the IETF is that you can't *expect*
anything, and thus you shouldn't *use* it as a disabled state.

The argument that you don't want to create another column to handle
state or operational status is a weak one.  Considering how hard it is
interpret the RowStatus TC as it is, do you really think overloading
it for another use is wise?  Wouldn't it be much more clear to add
another column?
