Since we are at it, may I ask that the following terms be added to the
"discussion":
* balkanization
* third-world countries

Yes - thanks. That does help. Other examples are welcome - at least to
me directly off-list if not on-list.
FWIW, this is what I'd probably suggest as alternatives:
* third-world countries / thirld world -> developing
countries/developing economies
* balkanization -> segmentation / uncooperative segmentation /
conflictive segmentation/separation
P.S.: One of the most useful things would be for the tools employed to
create documents (e.g. xml2rfc or idnits and/or spellcheck) to issue
warnings for these, and probably suggest the author to tweak the text
and maybe suggest some of the alternatives we are discussing here..
Thanks!
