My understanding of the situation (and I could be wrong) is that
someone recently did develop a spec in which they used SNMP to
write to devices.

I believe the intent behind putting it on the agenda is to
say "Don't do that" and provide a reminder of why not.  Personally,
I wish someone had set out those guidelines before we made the
decision to use SNMP for midcom a decade ago.
