This procedure would change how serial-num currently is handled.  I
don't have a strong opinion on this, but I note that serial-num is
writable in the ENTITY-MIB.  Maybe someone can comment on why it is
writable in the MIB, and if this is a use case that we want to
support?

I *think* this is an example of what were known as "post-it note"
objects.  Their values could be set by management action
to accommodate implementations in which, for example, the hardware
provided no way for software to access the information printed on an
inventory sticker affixed to a card.
