A single sentence summarizing what benefit is achieved with
the change, along with a couple of usage examples, would go a

I could live with a single sentence, but I strongly object to
the inclusion
of examples, for the reasons I gave in my original response.
Would a possible middle ground be to include a single
well-crafted sentence with an informative citation of
draft-ietf-eai-popimap-downgrade? That document does contain
examples and an explanation of that particular use case.
I thought Ned's goal was -- quite reasonably, IMO -- to not be dependent
upon EAI for this general-purpose enhancement.
