COMMENT:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I support Benjamin's first three DISCUSS points.

I feel like there are some fairly significant UI implications of adding this
option to the mix of other tools for transport-level encryption support, given
that this is supposed to operate on a message-by-message basis. Can you explain
how this is expected to work? I have this concern generally but also in
relation to this:

"REQUIRETLS users SHOULD be made aware
   of this limitation so that they use caution when sending to mailing
   lists and do not assume that REQUIRETLS applies to messages from the
   list operator to list members."

I can't figure out how this requirement is expected to be met in practice.
