James,

I think it would be a good move at this stage not to remove requirements 
that we don't want from the document, but rather move them to a special 
section called "nonrequirements", or mark them in the text as "MAY" (or the 
semantically equivalent "MAY NOT").

This makes it easy for the readers to tell the difference between "we 
didn't think about this" and "we thought about this and decided it was not 
a requirement".

It'll be a lively discussion in Adelaide....
