In the IETF, when similar situations happen, there is often disagreement about 
whether this one little change is editorial or has technical effects. However, 
that disagreement often comes up a few days after the change was made, making 
reverting difficult if other changes have been made subsequently. The draft 
numbering scheme in the IETF looks arcane and nerdy, but it has made it easier 
to see when an editorial change is actually a technical change and cleanly 
revert it. I don't know if that would work in the CABForum.
