I'm trying, without much success it seems, to explain why REQUIRETLS is
an incomplete take on the requirements for per-message TLS policy, and
why fragmenting the solution over multiple specificaitons would be a bad
idea.

I am not too worried about what MTAs will or won't do with per-message
REQUIRETLS, just pointing out non-orthogonal features which hint at the
need for a single spec.  I rather expect that the "require" side of the
per-message policy will see exceedingly little use.
